abstract style digital painting with links to related works
digital painting – 4 the Road Dan Beck – 2003
I keep spinning through my pieces – figuring there is a story to tell about each of them or at the very least a discussion about the medium or the art prints themselves.
When I did this I know I wanted a piece with this title – to come after a piece called 1more in the then other art gallery which has since been disbanded if you will and put into the original art-chives – more than probably anyone needs to know about outhouse studios website history.
The style was pretty abstract – I learned about more subtly adding texture long after this piece. And it looks like at this point, I was only using the stock textures – either not knowing or not having got to customizing my own yet.
There is a pond at the bend in the road – this is not the true landscape – but it is a wonderful microcosm of the rolling fields and the feeling of this land.
Like most of my earlier works it looks very complete printed on 13×19″ Japanese watercolor paper. Its initial pixel dimensions are such that it really looks bold and full. The trade off is that it would not be so exceptional larger than printed and matted for a 22×28″ frame.
