Done for a project Chase is working on. Inspired by Monsters INC. Pencils and inks.

Well — here is a cool new drawing application. I admire the creation of the code. These were done in about 20 seconds. Artsy. I heard some prominent photographers speaking once on the topic of digital photography. While they could appreciate the steps being taken in new directions concerning their medium — they were also discouraged by the proliferation of bad photography simply because the process had become much easier and quicker. Slowly but surely the need to actually think about composition, value, hue, repetition, development of skill and technique, etc. — the soul of an artwork, prior to snapping the shutter– was disappearing. The resulting creative process was this: take a thousand photos — one of them must be good. Everybody can do it. I am by no means implying that the dedicated artist, one that thinks and sees and works with patience is on the verge of extinction just because of technological advancement in the arts. I am simply advocating critical thought when it comes to handing out acclaim. Am I the inventive artist of the images above? Or did i just scratch out some lines and let the code do the rest. There are so many more thoughts that go along with this topic — too many to write out here. I can even see some areas wherein i wish to argue with myself. Regardless — discuss.
