The Web and Traditional Art

Fri Nov 13, 2009, 2:44 AM
As much as I love the web for giving an artist a outlet to display his/her work, nothing compares to the real thing. Looking at small representations of works on web pages, I am usually impressed. However, when the artist steps back and puts up a photo showing the piece's actual size and placement in a studio or gallery, I am blown away. LINK Size and lighting has a quality all its own, not to mention all the details lost to web optimized formats. I suggest that for anyone who has not left their computer screen in a while to take in a gallery or art show. I feel you, as I, will gain a new respect for the traditional arts and artists.
