overlapping color gradients – unique to digital painting
Blue Mountains – digital painting /art prints – circa 1998
This is one of my earlier digital paintings – not sure exactly when it was done. What I like about this piece is its translucent character.
At the time, I did not have an easy way to add texture, but I had found I could overlap color gradients in such a way as to almost look like stained glass – not that stained glass really overlaps.
I still like creating work that is both abstract and representational – this one was one of the first with the digital medium. Prior to that, everything was abstract because for me there is no pressure whatsoever when creating work that is non representational. There is nothing for the work to be compared to and it is a great place to learn how to control the medium.
