The Changing Pictures of the Sublime Mind

It takes time to get comfortable with new media tools such as Inkscape, but the feel of it is right.

Or as the Geeks like to say: "Spot On".

The Basic Reality of it is that Media IS changing, and if we do not want to be left behind, then we must be clever enough to adapt to the Changes.

Music has gone iPod.

Radio and TV is in Flux.

Newsprint is being set ablaze by Kindle and clones.

The cover of a recent New Yorker magazine was drawn on a iPhone App.

Things are changing fast.



Home on the Range?

And Art must find a Home in the New Topography of Digital Media.

It's not better or worse than what came before
.

It's Just Different.

And in the end, Art is Art.

And for that we need Artists.

As Huxley tried to tell us Years Ago: "It's A Brave New World".


There's "no smudges on my fingers".

=====================

The testing colors on the left of the pictures
are palette color smears,
and I like the flexibility to leave them in..
