Digital Art Studio – adventures in Ink

I am reading a book, Digital art Studio, about print making using digital images and ink jet printers. Lots of info & ideas for using more traditional media in combination.

To get an idea check out the websites of the three authors:

Bonny Lhotka

Dorothy Simpson Krause

Karin Schminke

I am busy gathering material, bought some “Rabbit Skin Glue” today, and InkAID.

Some images follow:

Landscape

I have these in mind to experiment with in the printing. These are about how I want them to look, but I will try different plain paper, wartercolour etc, and use “vivid” versions to compensate for the absobtion. I might also try over printing.

And these might end up in my landscape presentation of prints in the usual way.

Rauschenberg, dies at age 82

From an article in the WSJ by Barbara Rose

Robert Rauschenberg, whom many, including this writer, believe to be the biggest innovator in art after Jackson Pollock, died on Monday at age 82, an acknowledged hero of the avant garde. The passings of these two artists could not have been more different. Pollock careened to his death in a fatal 1956 car crash at age 44. Rauschenberg, to paraphrase Dylan Thomas, did not go gently into that good night. Paralyzed by a stroke, like his own hero de Kooning, he continued to work until the end of a long and productive life. From a wheelchair in his beachfront studio in Captiva, Fla., where he had retired from the New York art scene in the late 1960s, he selected images from the vast archive of his own photographs and, working with the aid of assistants, continued to turn out a steady stream of canvases and sculptures. Nor did he let the stroke keep him from attending openings and festivities.

Note Saturday, June 19, 2010
I’ve made this private as I have moved on a lot since then. I’d prefer to create a better audio.

Click to listen, right-click to download or better still subscribe to this blog in a reader and you can easily see which posts have audio attached, and then put them on your player.

Removed the password. Yes I have moved on but the history is nice to have.  Did I ever make another on this topic?

I have been doing a lot of this sort of quick sketching in my sketchbook, as in physical book. But I like to play with that background!

More of these then? So much to learn! The line is not quite following its desire.

Now this one grew out of the last one. One thing leads to another. But the process is not done. I can see this leading to more “design” style images, I am getting the hang of it and using a few new functions I am learning in the software (like copying a layer and then moving it slightly etc)

But what do I do, work on the bush or play more with designs? So this is what happens… a myriad of scrappy projects that I love doing… To be honest I think I will get there. Sooner or later I’ll get a series done and they will a unified life.
Earth Crosses got there, though there is a printing job to finalise there.

Next post, more moves into different directions.

Pseudopanax arboreus

To continue from the previous post, here is one that is not in a new style, but it led to one that is, I’ll put that in the next post. (I like to see one image per post.) This one conforms to my Bush project, except it is not quite right, maybe another go?

This is a five finger, a fairly ubiquitous native. Even in the darkness of the bush those leaves can shine pure white reflecting the light. Little curly bits of white… ah, I need to give it another go.

Here is quote from Wikipedia

Pseudopanax arboreus or Five Finger (Māori: ‘Puahou’ or ‘Whauwhaupaku’), is a New Zealand native tree belonging to the family Araliaceae. It is one of New Zealand’s more common native trees, being found widely in bush, scrub and gardens throughout both islands.
