Wynwood Artist Mark Diamond

Lunch with Lydia: Wynwood Artist Mark Diamond looks at the big picture - Lunch With Lydia - MiamiHerald.com: "“The majority of the population has stereo binocular vision. We see the world around us in three dimensions. That’s what’s normal,” says Diamond, 56, whose shoulder-length hair is usually kept in check by a backwards Kangol beret. “What’s not normal is a two-dimensional photograph or painting. That’s an abstraction of reality. We have learned to interpolate the information we are given in a two-dimensional image. But there’s the story of the aboriginals who were given Polaroid photos of family members and friends and they didn’t understand what these images were because they hadn’t learned to extract from these two-dimensional representations what they were so familiar with in three dimensions.”" (read more at link above)

Digital art, photography, self-discovery

Digital art, photography drive self-discovery - Times-Standard Online: " . . . . Williams is an award-winning digital artist and photographer who says she has “been an artist from childhood but somewhere along the way in the work a day world I lost track of my artist self.” In retirement, Williams said, she is “back on the road of self-discovery and giving the artist in me ways to get out into the world.” After discovering the capabilities of Photoshop software, she chose the “digital dark room” as her mode for creating and expressing her vision. ”I am discovering the joy of photography as well and seeing the world in new light through the camera's lens,” she said. ”I find endless energy in art and the creative process. My works start with a picture or pictures that are blended, merged digitally, altered and painted in much the same way you paint in the non-digital world. Some are hand-touched with paint accents after being printed.”. . .  ."
