Outdated and don't care


I spent countless agonizing hours trying to come up with the perfect way to create art. This was my first attempt. It originates on my "retro" daisy imac in the classic format of Adobe Ill. 9.0. Yep, an outdated almost 10 year old program version. It was the only way to jumpstart my creative process. Utilizing my graphic design background I chose a word in which I felt connected to. One that I could vision on an artist panel with interest. Having the freedom to adjust the composition and color palette while on screen was familiar and a luxury. Almost like cheating without realizing it. I had a plan. I executed the plan. It's not finished. It sits on my desk waiting for one last detail to be added.
