Reni -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (5/30/2009 8:10:59)

While, atm, i can't see myself ever working in that particular genre, i must say that i maintain my respect for artists working in it, IF they are at least moderately skilled in realistic art as well. It makes no sense to draw a couple triangles, say it is a great piece of work and not be able to draw a human realistically. Even Picasso, one of the founders of "abstract art," was a highly skilled painter.



GFXRandy -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (5/30/2009 10:46:20)

True reni, but abstract art goes way deeper than what Picasso had in mind [:)]

As an artist, i love abstract art. I love figuring out the meaning behind it rather than being smacked in the face by such an obvious piece of art. It's a high level of synthesis between abstract art, and the human mind. Abstract art also has to do with feelings. Personally, if i am in a bad mood, or an off mood, i find myself making tons of abstract art. For me, it's a way to express myself.



Wen Su the Tank -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (5/31/2009 11:00:05)

Abstract art hmmm, for me it represent the intricate development of someone mind soul and physical ephemal been. It shows how someone may think and is the only ultimate form of art, and everything is Abstract because the only true meaning behind a piece of art which is what the artist says what it is, Like i do some Abstract art as most people would precieve as abstract art should be like, but when i do it i always go with the flow and think 10 steps ahead of what i want it to look like and most importantly what it symbolises.

I shared your passion of abstract art but obvious pieces of art sometimes gives the critique more freedom of what to say incase the misprecieve what the artisit was trying to display, and most art is never obvious but only inspiring



StormCrow -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (6/3/2009 21:53:19)


It has been quite a while, since anyone has expressed their views on the abstract arts topic, so I will start a yet another one. What is your Visual Display Unit's (Computer's Monitor) Brightness and Contrast value? If I could find out the average value for all your computers, I could truly "see" what art looks like through the eyes of another.



Syrena -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (6/3/2009 22:19:28)

Well my Brightness amd Contrast is on 100%



StormCrow -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (6/3/2009 22:36:00)


Now I understand.. my brightness is zero. And the contrast usually around sixty..... ._.'

Important question: Due to varying brightness and contrast per computer, does it mean that when we make our artwork, we need to check what it looks like with 100% settings and then make necessary edits and revert back to normal? Is this wise? Can you guys think of anyway other means of overcoming this? Brightness and contrast is after all a significant aspect of art.



Syrena -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (6/3/2009 22:42:11)

Speaking for myself i find it interesting to see the art work in different contrast. Some times they look the same and other times they look complete different for me at least. I like to see the multiple outcomes, its kind of fun =D



StormCrow -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (6/3/2009 22:51:35)


But for the people who use darker settings - they would have stray faded smudges of colour - something they might label as an artistic hue they have come upon by chance. But when put under brighter settings the horror begins - they are illuminated brightly and starts contrasting with picture - it looks like as if the artist in question have been careless and lazy and forgotten to edit those parts out! This is something I am really worried about - I can't believe this has never hit me before >.<...

What must we do then, post our brightness & contrast settings on top our galleries or something?



Syrena -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (6/4/2009 14:18:56)

You make a good point StormCrow. But depending on the persons screen. They need to adjust the brightness and contrast in a way that everything seems balanced. But if they can not do that. Then next to there artwork they could put there Brightness and Contrast Level that way the viewer can see what the artist sees.

Yes, this is meant to be a challenge. :D

:P



TheShadowed1 -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (7/6/2009 18:58:50)

hmm, new topic
and this time it's kinda important

if members of the gallery were to great an art e-magazine, what would you like the articles to be about?
what would you like to learn?
is there something new you'd like showcased?
anything else?

thanks



Syrena -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (7/6/2009 19:17:12)

OoooOoo this sounds a bit interesting. Hmmm...

I think the articles should be about the different types of art that some people don't take the time to appreicate such a digital art.

quote:

what would you like to learn?

I'd like to learn a lot of things. Such as the programs used to make a successful looking piece of artwork. A type of rubric you should follow when you're rating others and your own artwork.

quote:

Hmmm maybe a different form of art or a different type of drawing never before seen

quote:

anything else?

Umm maybe we can also showcase the different steps some people take to make the artwork they create/craft =P



Angel of Grief -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (7/6/2009 20:48:24)

hmm...

at least one article per media.....photography, hand drawn, and computer generated. maybe a "featured artist", who seems to excell in that topic each week. of course, a link to their gallery as well....

quote:

what would you like to learn?

interesting....definately new, unique ways to capture things in photography, draw better, and new ways to use photo editing programs.

quote:

is there something new you'd like showcased?

like pictures embedded into the post? as i said above, the best new picture in those three media topics....

quote:

anything else?

of couse :3
1) why hasn't this been done already? D:<
2) a "meet the artist" section, on a random member of the gallery. they submit a short bio about themselves and their work.
3) i really like this idea..

Minar -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (7/27/2009 16:06:10)

This is not where discussion of the project should be held.
Only to answer the questions TS1 has posted.
Keep the discussion to that.

Any other discussion should be held through PMs or other means, but not here.



Angel of Grief -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (7/27/2009 16:57:06)

so do i suggest a new topic or what now?
if so....what do you guys think of Black and white photography? do you think it is better or worse than color?

im kind of braindead today...lol

on a different subject....its Almost August...i wonder who the new artist of the month will be?



Lavitz -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (7/27/2009 17:07:31)

depends basically of what you have taken picture of, but i guess i enjoy color pictures more.
as for the AoTM, in my opinion Vhan should be next...



nolraitru -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (7/27/2009 20:25:22)

Speculation on the next AotM does not belong in this thread, mostly because I count it as a second topic.

Keep with the opinion on B&W photography.



GFXRandy -> RE: Black Rose Cafe [Archived] (7/27/2009 21:38:54)

B&W photography in my opinion, are highly monotone. They lack the vivid detail that full color portrays.

I do love B&W Selective color though. Have a peek
an example: Selective Color

Many high end cameras have the option to only capture a selective color. In this case, Green. As you can see, the result is wonderful :)
