NakedGenius Design Group

NakedGenius is working in two directions now, NakedGenius Fine Art and NakedGenius Design.  While all of us in the group are fine artists and still pour our focus there, several of us in the group are also commercial artists and/or photographers, as well, and so the NakedGenius Design group is forming in our inside work area.  Right now, we’re doing a demo project to explore working together.  It’s fun.  Much easier that having to do a whole project all by yourself, at least from my perspective.  I can see where I’d prefer to do some client projects without having to work within a team, but the experience with the NakedGenius group is quite satisfying so far.

divergenceBy Tim Stringer

Continuing with my explorations of abstract paintings I was thinking about how each decision in life presents a multitude of paths. Decide one way and that decision lead towards specific events. Decide another way and of whole new set of events could unfold. Despite a seemingly endless array of outcomes, in the end each life will be what it is. There is no going back. 30×24″ digital painting.

Prints available at Redbubble.

Hand Drawn vs Digital

Last modified on 2009-02-14 20:04:01 GMT. 0 comments. Top.

Commercially, I live in a digital world, creating digital art on the fly for folks near and far. The other day, some of my hand-drawn work I hadn’t seen in twenty years surfaced, and I sat back looking at it and wondering at myself. The work has a quality that I find very intimate now after having lived in the precision world of pixels. There is an aliveness to the feel of the works that cannot be duplicated in digital. I know that sounds strange, because I mimic “hand-drawn” all the time in digital for clients who want it. But, the pressure of the hand with the pencil or pen, the way graphite or a graphic pen interacts with the paper is exquisitely intriguing.
