Stompin
Impressionist, painterly
Two boys doing what they do best in the rain.
Originally impressionism was that the colour should be dropped pure on the canvas rather than mixed on the palette. Today, now that we have so many new paints and mediums to work with, while the original concept of impressionism remains the same, styles and techniques have evolved.
My style of Impressionism embraces traditional painting. It is the evolution of impressionism that i am hoping to achieve, from the original traditional techniques of impressionist painting all the way to this modern impressionist digital art which can be stylized and painterly depending on my subject and mood.
My work is hand painted digital painting and is an emerging art form in which traditional painting techniques such as watercolor, oils, etc. are applied using digital tools by means of a computer, a digitizing tablet and stylus, and software. Digital painting differs from other forms of digital art, particularly computer-generated art, in that it does not involve the computer rendering from a model. The artist uses painting techniques to create the digital painting directly on the computer.
I create the painting, directly on my PC, by using a Wacom tablet, a stylus pen and ArtRage painting software. The Wacom tablet can be compared to a canvas or watercolor paper surface. The stylus pen is my paintbrush.

Excellent job… and much kudos for your accompanying text. I can’t begin to express my frustration on the responses I get for my digital paintings… as if it’s cheating, or requires no imput from the artist (just a click of a mouse and the PC does it for you… even a child could do that in a couple of seconds… etc)

It has taken me approximately three years to achieve the paintings I do at present and I am still experimenting and learning. keep at it.
