Original Logo found in Galleries
Once again I have mucked with the logos found at Outhouse Studios, I pulled the old faithful off the main page and replaced it with my newest colorful animated version and then added a mini-version of the original logo (above).
For fun I made that […]
Literal Latitude -> Feeling, Process and Intent
Enlarge - Cloud Cover - Digital Painting 2006- Dan Beck
One would never know its been raining here. Sometimes the clouds just swallow the mountains. I look out, I look up… and see this incredible interplay of cloud and mountain - rain blending the whole scene as though the […]
Colorful, Brilliant Glow, Quick, Powerful Look
Bold Glimpse - Enlarge - Digital Painting - 2006 - Dan Beck
It wasn’t so much sun as color that protruded under the clouds. I couldn’t stay out long - the wind was ferocious.
Even bundled up and being a transplanted Midwest/East Coaster who has picnicked in worse weather did not make […]
House, Childhood Memory, Structure
House - Gallery Page - Digital Painting - 2000(+/-1)
Not having a new work to show or rather that I want to show. I came upon this piece. I am not exactly sure when this was created - I know it was pre- 2001- but creation dates for early works got skewed when the […]
Colorize, Comparison, Leaving Open to Imagination
Colorized Vision - Enlarged - Digital Painting 2006
Either below or by following this link you will find another digital painting. Actually it is the same digital painting before I added color and took it someplace different.
This is a departure from the way I normally work. If I set out to do a piece […]
Color, Doing Without Ingredient, Experiencing New
Black & White Vision - Full Size - Digital Painting 2006
I generally paint using color. Color for me is much of the fun. I find great joy in using color. To paint with only black, white, and grays, however, is also fascinating. It is an exercise perhaps like cooking without […]
Digital Medium: Texture, Collage, Technique Develop
Tractor Sunset - Gallery Page -Digital Painting Fall 2003
Sunset Seen - Gallery Page - Digital Painting Fall 2005
I was noticing the top painting the other day and focusing on the texture in the fields. It reminds me of torn paper or a collage with tissue. I think this is most […]
Seeing, Understanding, Communicating, Feeling
More Warm Hills - Gallery Page - Digital Painting 2005
Often I write about trying to convey a feeling in a painting. Often I write about how seeing is completely wrapped up in understanding - how communicating what one sees is about communicating what one is experiencing.
At least for me - that […]
Computer Art, Classifying Medium, Categorizing Creativity
Enlarge DeSkies - Digital Painting - 2006
This is my most recent digital painting to date. I find this medium difficult to classify. Digital is how the information is stored - just as music is stored. Digital is synonymous with computer and is about the numeric nature of data.
For me […]
Capture Feeling, Aesthetic Dictates Painting
Larger View of Cloud Shadows - Digital Painting - 2006
I had fun with the clouds in particular on this piece. I kept layering color and texture, swirling, light and dark - trying to capture some of the fluffy cumulus nature.
They billow quite a bit and all in all I am […]
