Digital Media spring 2015... the full boat!

Artist Statement Final Victoria Vallis April 29, 2015 Subject: 350S Art Title: Digital Media by Victoria Vallis During my adult life I have been experimental in approach to a love of art, especially Digital Media! ever trying to figure out the best way to display creativity, I produce projects with an unusual flair. The artistic outcome I seek should be pleasing, interesting, and unique with a possible slant toward marketable. I want to form a full cycle of imaginative possibilities with this art. Through an application of colorful wit to my own process combined with natural sources to form unusual viewpoints (my humorous use of a cartoonish three dimensional toe, people, bands, dogs and unique backgrounds). Pieces of each come together with a change of view and meaning to form mysterious and unusual very different images. A playful effect of bright colors and the unexpected emerges. My art is a trek into the fantasy world of what if? If all was perfect like a happy cartoon with no evil, then how would things be? The settings are a backdrop of pastoral peace with vast new possibilities into three dimensional art and video. Since i had never heard of Maya before my Digital Media class, I had a new program to discover. Wow three dimensional objects from drawings in this Maya program! A whole new world of creation presented itself to me. This Digital Media class has been a good way to learn new programs, uses of digital media and even Heideger’s theories.
