Occasionally you find someone who thinks his photograph of camel hair should be worth more than the camel. You ll meet mostly wonderful, cooperative people through emailing about your projects. But I get ahead of myself. When you re just starting and don t have a web gallery, commercial or non-commercial, then you can use about anything your want. . It s a good habit to ask permission, though, from the very first.
Computer painting runs the whole spectrum.
I ve occasionally compromised and chosen something less shocking to the general audience, whoever they are. You ll have to be your own judge about censorship matters, though. As to style, I hope I m developing my own, but that s a longterm struggle. I like the fact that computer art can be such a mixed media, with photo realism side by side with painterly effects. Others might be more attracted to abstract computer painting, with the near infinite possibilities of fascinating , subtly nuanced and not quite repeating patterns and shapes.
