I'm not a digitally-inclined person, so taking a Digital Art class was a blow to my subconscious, sort of. I'm more of a traditional artist, using pencil and paper to create my own worlds. I actually had some negative associations with Digital Art originally, thinking that it wasn't really art, but rather just an enhancement of art. You know, you take a photograph, you alter it, and then you say "Hey look what I made!". But DID you really make it? It's only been 2 weeks for this class, you know, and it's already changed. I see how creative the process for creating digital art can be, after making some fun CD covers, (which I will post in a later blog :) )
This here is one of my first ventures in Digital Art that I made for an Alice in Wonderland contest on the horrible, but functional site known as deviantArt, (and then didn't enter the contest anyway because I thought it was terrible). It's alright, but it's clearly beginner work. Hopefully by the end of this semester, I should be able to modify this and make it actually look decent. Still, this is a starting point, one step above simply coloring and creating lineart in Photoshop, to actually working on something completely in Photoshop...albiet rather awfully.
