The Power of Surrealism and Reality


                                                                            Miles Johnston

Miles Johnston has constructed the bridge between realism and surrealism. He is a young artists that is pursuing his career in drawings/ illustrations. His work is very metaphorical and revolves around the structure and actions of human beings. He often takes the bodies of his drawn subjects and distorts their face or body. His tone is very dark and vintage. His main medium is graphite, which really adds to his overall aesthetic. This year Johnston was even published in the book Suggestivism Resonance, which features one of his newer pieces.

  1. These drawings are very cool and abstract.

  2. Surrealism is such an interesting style, and I think it's so neat that a surreal artist can take a concept and run with it to produce something incredibly out of the ordinary.

  3. As a lover of surreal art, these pieces do not disappoint. They are very eye-catching and expressive. One does not simply look at these at a glance, one must gaze and ponder the idea behind it.

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.

IMPRESSED BUT YOU CAN DO MORE Apple......

FOR THE UNINFORMED: Mrs. Shields may kill me for how long this post to the blog is, but she can deal with it :P Alright... I just want to state that I love Apple to death and get that out of the way but I AM GOING TO RANT for a little. Apple introduced the new "iPad Air" to the world today, among other things. The starting price for a 16GB silver OR black iPad Air is $499, and if you want 8x the storage with the 128GB version, it'll set you back $799. To put that into perspective, if you were to buy a 2.3GHz Mac Mini that has a quad core Intel Core i7 (the fastest processor Intel makes, starting at the i3, i5, and then the i7), 4GB of DDR3 ram, and a 1TB hard drive, it'll set you back $799. So you can buy a pretty very good Mac computer (I have one at home but better haha) or a new iPad. Anyways....  The iPad Air weights only A pound (yes one pound), is only 7.5 millimeters thick (Apple advertises that by saying 7.5 millimeters THIN), has a 9.7...

Bye For Now DMA

      Well since I'm a senior, then this is probably going to be my last blog post. Next year, I am going to do the Digital Design program at the Warren County Career Center for college credit, so I'm still going to do some DMA stuff after graduation. It's been very cool to be making cool stuff here and I'll miss you guys and I know your going to miss me and my dog Max.
