| Symbolism, ©Robin Wood 1997. Used with Permission |
A model of generosity as well as brimming over with talent, Robin Wood
is not only generous with her art -- which explores territory from realism to the far reaches of fantasy -- she
also offers tutorials at her site. If you are a fan of the Dragonriders of Pern series by Anne McCaffrey, you must check out her online gallery. A portion of the chalice in Robin Wood's piece, "Symbolism" forms part
of this section's title collage. Thanks again, Robin!
Trippy, visionary, custom art. Check out this close-up of Nemo's vision of the Cheshire Cat, inspired by a Northwest Native
American artwork as well as the immortal cat from the Lewis Carroll classic, depicted as a dreamy, "trippy" spirit guide:
The painting and the story.
"Science and art share a common mandate -- to find surprise in the ordinary
by seeing it from an unexpected point of view." ~ Howard Bloom
Street animation is revolutionary in the same sense that the garage band sound revolutionized the music industry. Using the technology that is
available to ordinary people -- in other words, cheap -- Howard Bloom's Media Lab aims "to save and change humanity
by changing the way it sees,...by giving it a sense of meaning."
Erich Mangl Gallery
Wonderful and unusual photographs and computer-generated images to be seen at this site, many pix great for

Santiago says, "My paintings are what dreams are made of." His dreams must sometimes be very uneasy.

the language of war and peace and the human condition.

About Cybermontage
Like the mixed-media technique of collage, clipped and sculpted
images are manipulated and compiled using the computer technique we call 'cybermontage'.
Computer paint techniques are used to further tweak the assembled
images until the piece becomes a unified whole with a message unique from its sources.
