Description


I've noticed something recently that I find sad: out there in the real world there is prejudice against digital art. For example, when an art cafe owner realized that my art prints were "digital" she suddenly lost her interest in displaying my works, and I suddenly felt like an outcast. I got a bit mad and mentioned that I could paint that oil splatter she had on her walls with my eyes closed, but I choose not to because it would bore me to death. It seems that many traditional "art" people believe that if an image is not made with chemical paints it's automatically inferior. Well, all this got me hooked on a new dream... to someday build an art museum just like this, and guess what... ONLY DIGITAL ART ALLOWED! ;) Now this image is dedicated to all of you that have worked so hard to create great images and still took the time to look and comment on my stuff. This image is yours.

Digital art is currently retracing the steps Phootgraophy had to go through a coupple decades ago to be accepted as Art. Unfortunately the Art World is full of People Who Know What Is Art. sigh.... Heck, Illustration is still Not Considered Art in places like the Guggenheim Museum. As for the image, GREAT WORK!

I couldn't agree more with your comments about digital art. You would think that folks involved in the arts would have a more open & accepting attitude towards new forms of expression, but sadly they can be just as set in their ways as anyone else. Nice work on this - I like the grand scale & classical feel of it - & thanks for including me in such distinguished company...

Well, I'm blown away. This is just fantastic. And one of mine is in your collection, you flatter me. As for the 'tude of some 'traditional' artists: Digital art is new and like all new things it is treated with suspicion or even rejected by the old guard. Photography was similarly shunned in its infancy. Sigh.

OH MY.. I had the same exact experience two weeks ago. The gallery made me feel so bad until they saw my prints on Hahnemule fine art photo rag paper. They were tempted but said the other artists would not approve.. Geeeze..... This is beyond excellent for 3D digital..this is exemplerary (sp?). Sign me up for your gallery, be it as an artist or just someone allowed to view the fine artists displaying their work. :=)

Fantastic work - when you think that art is often not understood and 'digital' anything still concerns people it is not surprising. Turan

Great idea!!! It is an interesting juxtoposition of ideas that some people should show a preference for a so called work of art by a painter and yet have prints on their walls which are virtually the same in format as a print from a digital source. I paint and draw as well and certainly would not descry any who choose other mediums but unfortunately there are those throughout the history of art who would rubbish anything that does not appear to conform so to speak. You have only to look at the problems the impressionists faced as a clear example when trying to gain acceptance.

The image is more than outstanding!!! Much as I hate to admit it...it takes time to break down traditional thinking, but if we all keep doing what we do...we will! Keep up the good work!

Well...the Art world is full of snobbery and muted opinions...exactly the opposite of what it should represent....this image is unreal...see?...even I said "image"...anyway ...what a fantastic render{did it again}...the sense of scale is amazing...not easy to achieve,don't despair...talent always wins out in the end,and you have a tonne of it!

WOW! I'm very flattered to have one of my images included in your "museum." Thank you! This is a wonderful concept, both in the virtual world and maybe someday in reality, not to mention a fantastic image. And you are right, people seem to think digital art is easy, inferior to the real thing. They simply have no idea.

Yes my friend it is a sad fact that dig-art is still not as broadly accepted by the traditional artists but hey - its still new and times will change. Anyway this piece is ace spent alot of time looking at the details. Its also quite calming and relaxing and a break away from the intence sc-fi stuff -(all good though) Keep it up Haltek

This is a highly beautiful image. It is work like this which I wish I cold achieve in my own efforts. Thank you for including my Atlast at Rest image. I am honored. About the lack of respect for digital art, I am sure that cafe owner is impressed in the special effects in movies... I come across this bias too. This is a marvel of work.
