- Short: Image done with Imagine (mjf)
-
- This is a work inprogress (WinP) done with Imagine.
- I use scans of postcards collected during travels through europe, and
- some photographs I've taken. I should give credit for some:
-
- Window: from a real window in la chiesa di Santa Croce in Florence, Italy
- Book: from choral books in monastery (??) in Siena, Italy.
- Picture: Ghirlandaio Fresco from Sta. Maria Novella in Florence, Italy
-
- The table woodgrain was scanned from a floor tiling sample. I made the
- feather with Dpaint (color map & transparency map -- any suggestions as
- to the glitch of black just above the inkwell??). The rest are Imagine's
- procedural textures.
-
- I say in progress, because I still want to build more objects for the
- scene, and fix a lot of things. For instance: phong artifacting on wall
- around window; bad use of textures on walls/floor; bad lighting...
-
- I'm not sure if I would consider this one of my artworks... it's more of
- an experiment in some Imagine gimmicks and object building. See the
- "mjf.MedvlStudyZoom.jpg" for a closeup of the crystal ball if you like.
-
-
- I would appreciate any suggestions/observations/critique. I am pursuing
- my BFA at UofWisconsin Madison, and find that most of the art professors
- and my fellow art students haven't much to say about computer art. It's
- natural, of course, but I would like to get more feedback.
-
- I am attempting to explore new ideas in 3D imaging, and trying to go beyond
- shiny balls on the checkerboard look. (OK, so this one is pretty
- conventional... bad example! :)
-
- These pix are my first posting on the net of my work.
-
- ENJOY! But please remember, they are mine...
