Digital Art

Over 30 years ago when graphic design switched from drawing boards to computers I was in the early stages of my career. Having to learn a whole new way to design was daunting and intimidating.

But, somehow I succeeded. They say that threat of hunger and poverty are great motivators and they’re right. It was either sink or swim. Either I learned the new technology or I would have been left behind and my career in graphic deign would have been over.

Over the last few decades digital publishing and art has exploded. So much has changed as it pertains to advertising, digital effects, streaming, computer generated animation and the like.

For 11 years I taught high school graphic deign and commercial art. One of the most exciting products I challenged students to do was to create a scenario or themed digital piece of art of my choosing. The results were often mind-blowing and that was nearly a decade ago!

Digital art has continued to advance and like with any other form of art or creative endeavor there are those individuals who excel in their own particular area of expertise.

In Digital Art, 20 digital art pioneers from all over the globe share their work that have redefined the boundaries of digital art.

Amazing, complex, mind-boggling and original pieces of art fill the pages of the Schiffer Publication’s Digital Art hardbound book by Alessandra Mattanza.

Careful examinations, commentaries and production notes and information are included with the full-color digital art examples.

Interviews, philosophies and diverse techniques are included in this deluxe hardbound book.

As advanced as digital art is now just imagine what it will be when AI and other computer programs, both present and future, are incorporated. I can’t wait to see what’s next!
