original image – original prints
Santa Lucia Impression – digital painting / art prints – 2005
As I continue to write about different aspects of original art, I keep trying to feature digital paintings which are either brand new or archetypal or both.
When I finished this piece, I wasn’t sure about it – but a couple of artist friends were. They knew I had captured something dramatic, bold, and special.
It is definitely original in that sense – my attempts to create something with a similar flow – Feeling of Rain and Tall Side Mountains were not nearly as dramatic.
I have done plenty of other bold pieces – ones in which I worked fast used deep colors – but the above piece does both so well – plus there was this element of chance in the way the fog came out – that I am not sure I could repeat even if I wanted.
To me – good original artwork – is not easily followed – even by the same artist.
