Digital Speed Painting

I wish I had a smidge of this guy's talent.

Mmm, Photoshop.

This should be shown to everybody who says digital art isn't "real art".

My favorite thing was how the artist was never happy with the subject's lips.

This digital art is just as "real" and valid as pen to paper. It's an incredible talent and I'm just mesmerized by it.

Wow. That was almost hypnotic and just goes to show what can be done.

Thanks for sharing that - I'm stunned.

It's brilliant to see the art progress like that, isn't it? I am fascinated by the way it evolves.

Hehe, fascinating and a very talented artist, great find Charmax. I love all the alterations he makes (I can so relate to that) - even after he signs it, then he takes another look and repositions the head & neck.

There is no difference in using paint & digital paint other than it is simpler to correct your mistakes and it doesn't make a mess of your kitchen :D

Yeah, I loved that last minute alterations too. It's almost like you can see the artist's mind at work. There was this little nagging feeling I had when I first watched it, I wanted to say "stop now before you ruin it!" but he didn't ruin it because he is good and he obviously knows exactly what he's doing.

When are you going to have a go at this Andrea? :D

Well I have the graphics pad collecting dust on my desk - I want to have a go soon but I can't see me turning it into a music vid on youtube unless it's going to be a cure for insomniacs ;)

I started watching it and was interested, but I didn't realize how much I'd love it.

[charmax.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it gets you like that. Fantastic work.

Did you see the Locke drawing? (I think it was from the same person). Just insane.

[charmax.livejournal.com]

I saw Locke, Ghost Whisperer and the little girl - *jaw dropping*

Wow. I never fancied myself very good at Photoshop or whatnot, but I'm SOO not even passable compared to that guy!

Cheers for the vid, though. That was amazing.

"Wow. I never fancied myself very good at Photoshop or whatnot, but I'm SOO not even passable compared to that guy!"

Heh me either. That guy is a master at his art and I feel like a toddler with paints after watching it.

[countessmary.livejournal.com]

LOL. Paints sound fun though. *thinks about maybe going to the drug store to pick up finger paints*

It couldn't hurt my mood because nothing's better than getting good and covered in paint! :)

Cheers.

[charmax.livejournal.com]

Yeah that sounds like a great idea to me. Go for it and then show us the results! :D

That is incredible! Thanks for posting this!

[charmax.livejournal.com]

You're welcome!

Wow, that was amazing Charmax! I'm so glad I checked out your LJ and found that. I love Radiohead and Thom Yorke, and that artist was outstanding. Great find!

[charmax.livejournal.com]

It was an incredible find on youtube. Unfortunately I don't get that lucky often. I'm so jealous of the talent and skill that guy obviously has. He is just all kinds of wow. You should check out his other work too! *nods enthusiastically*
