Computer Art is Easy Art
December 12th 2006 13:44
A picture says a thousand words, so this blog entry is technically 7069 words long. Everything I did here took me less than 30 seconds. Easy.
Heres the raw vanilla image:
Heres the ‘artistic’ ones:
Don’t you agree the results are complex looking? Though it was done on Adobe Photoshop with nothing but filtering effects, any graphics designer would see right through the ‘complexity’.

What I do is not so easy, colouring alone takes a long time. I wouldn't call those images you have produced computer art.
Try producing some of the things I do.
No, don't copy, come up with something from scratch, i.e. a plain white page.
Have you seen some of the other art around, and I am not talking about computer art.
I don't claim to be a great artist or even much of an artist, but I do have a certain inspiration, and if you'd followed all my blogs from day 1 on Orble you'd understand my modus operandi and raison d'etre. How long do your posts take?
Even putting up a number of images and links takes considerable time.
I'm quite certain what I do takes a lot longer that what you do.
katyzzz....you seem to have a bee in your bonnet.

I think theres a difference between difficult and tedious. Tedious is where something takes sometime to do due to some sort of repetitivity or monotonoussness, difficulty under this context would be something that is hard to do, which recquires planning and care, etc.
Well I'd try and make something similar to what you dp save for the fact I don't understand why you'd want me to, care for an explanation? Also all artists have their own unique style, if I copy what you're doing Im not creating art, simply showing what you do is easy to do with the right software.
Yes I have seen some other art, but erm, yeah I have, so?
We all have a certain inspiration for something, so erm... wait, whats that got to do wiht this post?
I also dunno why you ask how long my posts take but generally speaking it depends on the content, sometimes it can take as little as a half hour (this one took me about 45minutes cos it took a while to upload those pictures), but I've been known to be crazy enough to spend four or five hours for a post (not in one sitting mind you), so erm... yeah... wait, whats this got to do with anything? (again).
I have to agree, took me forever to upload all those images up. Takes me sometime too to edit photographs and the like...
So what you do takes more time than what I do, (ie writing posts). Ok, fair enough, except (putting aside the fact I don't understand what your point is) that isn't saying much, theres a difference between something tedious and something actually difficult to work on, heck, difficult things can take less time to do than tedious things, this is especially true with computers, don't make me pull out programming examples in this regard
I did not make this post in reference to any one person, I did this post into what I see as a general truth, with the right software even the most complex forms of 'art' can be easily produced.
As for your art, well you seem to be making it in MSPaint which isn't ideal for the sort of thing you're trying to do, I'd gentely nudge you over 'adobe illustrators' way where you can make some wonderful vector based art a lot easier than on MSPaint, too bad the damn software costs an arm and a leg, and then some...

Heres are two example of really good art on computers:

Oh and I did decide to pass time and make something like what you do on MSPaint (damn I can't believe i have mpsaint on this thing I use
