what they are
PixelGraphs photomontages are fine art prints which are created combining photographs with digital artistic techniques and elements.
The photograph is the starting point. The artist's vision is the modifier.
The picture is first enhanced using editing software and digital filters. Occasionally, a new composite work is created from two or more photographic images.
The new image then emerges through the use of virtual brushes and inks capable of rendering different styles, textures and mediums. Although the tools are nontraditional, the creative process follows well-established artistic principles while allowing unimaginable freedom.
Its subject matter varies… sometimes the strength of the subject or the liveliness of the action dominates the picture. At other times they are more like a memory of those perfect moments when the light softens the details and deepens the colors. And on occasion, they just run wild in a whirlwind of colors where the only rules are aesthetics and harmony.
The computer screen is the canvas and the digital pen is the brush, but they are just tools like the ones which they imitate. Ultimately, no matter the medium or the tools, “the act of creation springs from the mind and the soul of the artist."*
Each art print is produced individually using pigment inks and quality archival art paper or canvas.
