The theme of my Art gallery is digital animals. Why animals? Well why not. Animals are a big thing to us whenever we see them in the zoo, our national parks, or our streets we tend to get excited we also get a little astonish at whatever the animals does. With digital animals they take all the excitement of the animal but they add a twist to it making regular animals look even better while doing some weird and amazing actions. On the other hand digital artist tend to make new animals that they have made up in their imagination which is cool as we tend to see the animal which gets a little boring but when someone creates a weird scientific looking animal it tends to grab our attention.
Kaya Oldaker is an internet artist who’s art consist of digital animals. But the theme of the animals she create usually revolve around scientific and fantasy animals. Scientific and fantasy animals have a big of late for digital as many more games have been installing these type of animals into games. The reason as to why this subject is trending is because many people have never seen these types of animals as they do not exist in our world which leads people to stare in “aw” at a beautiful or horrifying creature. Oldaker is also working on a game by the name of “Light up the world” for the Paralympic games.
Simon Cowell is an internet artist who’s art in my opinion has the most amazing digital animal art out there. When I went to his website he had a bunch of art pieces of different animals I have never seen before there were some that could be from today’s world, the stone ages, and even futurist animals that look like they can live in space. Cowell work is very different from oldaker work as she tends to focus on making animals that could be from the past like the Hobbit types of animals, while Cowell tends to focus on futurist or space animals. Cowell as well has worked on a bunch of projects but the main one that he gets most praised for was his work for the “Guardians of Galaxy Vol 2”. Cowell also won an award called “A.M.E. Bale Travelling Scholarship”.
Ricardo Ow is an internet artist but he tends to focus on the the mythical creatures with a little twist to it. In most of his art work he tends to focus on a time period such as the stone ages, but he tends to always add his iconic dragon and dog to it as the dog and dragon are friends. He puts the dog and the dragon in different scenarios such as sleeping together, fighting a monster of some kind, or fleeing from a monster that is hard for them to fight. Ow also has worked on AAA video games and mobile games and he tends to focus on Sci-Fi/ Fantasy illustrations.
