Multi medium digital imagery.
"Expression Through Technology". Digital artist Paul Cooklin offers 950 original images in varying styles from modern contemporary to abstract and conceptual. The images are intriguing but it's the medium and framing options that caught my eye. There are several photo stocks and canvas options available and the Crystal Edge Lit Display (shown). These are interesting times for art and technology and yet I sense we haven't seen anything yet.
