For this last year I am doing this art class. Just for fun actually. At first I have done these portaits which I derived from earlier vector drawings I have done. But since I wanted to go into a new direction I found this ‘graphic’ style which seems to be the style I will be doing this year.
This past year I have been experimenting with real drawing and painting. And let me tell you it isn’t easy! If you are used to the digital accuracy with which you can draw in Illustrator and Photoshop, then having a real pencil and brush in your hand is like being on a different planet.
Nothing beats the analog sound of good old vinyl records. This is just a tribute to this medium and a photoshop excercise to create artificial lighting and … stuff.
Artificial free form created from totally scratch, … nothing. Again another excercise in lighting techniques and materials. The metallic form is 100% created within photoshop.
I had this piece lying around for a couple of months now. I didn’t really know for myself if it’s finished or not. Well, … no use in keeping it on my computer, so I decided to release it to the World. Yes, … to you!

This project was inspired by Joshua Davis and his work on ‘Dynamic Abstraction’. With ‘DA’ you create abstract forms of a repetitive nature. I used the files from his workshop and created ‘forms’ in Flash CS3.
