Digitial Fine Art


This is the first posting in pursuit of opening a dialog with other artist and art lovers who are interested in digital art as a viable fine art medium. I am an artist, who has worked for many decades in various mediums and styles. In recent years I have focused on the computer and it's use as a design tool and in the creation of fine art imagery. Many of my colleagues have been reluctant to recognise the validity of this tool and it's images as an acceptable art form. Ansel Adams, the photographer, faced the same narrowness nearly a century ago. I believe digital fine art has almost no history of it's own and we, as the first generation of digital artists, will define this history.
I've worked in many styles (traditional and modern) as well as conceptual art, poetry and music. Creativity is a life style that has served me spiritually and economically for a lifetime. This is what I call Freestyle Art.
Who are you, what do you know, what do you do and think?
