Bamboo Art: Part I

This post is in two parts, because it's rather long and about two different things: Bamboo and Art. Both of these things are exceptionally cool, and I just had to post about them. First, I will discuss Art. Not just any old art, because that's for some boring old blogger who wants to discuss Monet. No. I discuss things more interesting than that.
Yeah right.
Whatever. But the art I like is digital art. I'm a very Internet savvy person (lol...) and i have discovered many a cool site. One of these is DeviantArt.com. Deviantart is a site where various random people from all reaches of the world post their artwork in different art forms, like photography, traditional art, and digital art. This is where I first located the realm of Digital Art.
Digital Art is art created digitally.
Really? I would never have guesses.
Shut up and let me explain. Now where was I? Ah. Digital Art is art created digitally. Using programs like Photoshop, Corel Painter, and Paint Shop Pro, artists can create various forms of art using differently shaped brushes (soft edged? hard edged? texture brushes?) varying opacity ( to create better shading and coloring techniques) and endless varieties of colors.
You're starting to sound like an advertisement.
Yeah. That's because it's cool. Just wait until next post; that'll definitely be like an advertisement.
I can't wait...
Yup! So anyway, it's really, really cool. Through many Google searches I also found a site called Elfwood, where users can post their drawings for others to review. I love this site. I have found so much good digital art on this site, by some amazing artists. One of them is Cris Ortega. You absolutely have to check her art work out. I'm pretty sure I will do a future post reviewing my favorite pieces of her work. But for now...
Another amazing digital artist is Natascha Roeoesli. All of her art is done on the computer, and is absolutely spectacular. Beautiful fantasy art...
Diane Ozdmar also does amazing digital art, as does Adele Lorienne, Annah Hutchings, and Rachel Anderson.
All of these people make beautiful artwork, all painted digitally. Check it out, it is absolutely, amazingly, freakily fantastic!
Wow, that took a while.
Ain't that dandy?
ROOAAAR!!!
