Graphics then and now

So, while I was on thanksgiving break, I bought a nintendo 64. I was just sitting around and playing some super smash bros., and I just thought "wow, what a long way video games have come." Years ago when technology was low on the n64, compared to now with the Wii U, there is a huge difference. The graphics are incredible these days compared to the art of generations ago. I think we are getting really close to making video games seem like real life. Here are some examples of graphic comparison SSB N64

  1. I agree the graphics sure have improved. I've seen major improvements like in Halo. My brother pays close attention to the graphics in games. Just loves them, and the games.

  2. We have to ask ourselves though, when graphics get to the point when they can't get maxed any further, what new direction will we take?

  3. i really like how the improved graphics look both realistic and cartoon-y at the same time!

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

Speed Painting

This a painting made in Photoshop by a guy who goes by the name " The Concept Painter " on Youtube. He does lots of Photoshop speed painting videos and also air brush videos. This particular painting took him 3.5 hours to complete and was made using a drawing tablet similar to the ones we use in our class.

Another Comic Book Artist (Woo!): Annie Wu

 If you have talked to me for more than one minute, I am a huge nerd. So, I am making another post about comic book artists. This time it's Annie Wu. She's a comic book artists who lives in Chicago, and is one of my inspiration artists for my sustained investigation. A lot of her work is dramatic with deep and dark lines with bold colors which is makes style perfect for where I first found her work. I first saw her work in the Black Canary book in 2017. Eventually, I will talk about Marvel comic book artists, but not today. If you want to check out more of her work, here is her website:  https://www.anniewuart.com/
