Dragonfly Artwork

This particular animal was the late night creation of a now familiar process that yields different results every time I sit down to create. The impulses to create usually come past the midnight hour when I am listening to music and relaxing alone with my thoughts. I don't always start with an image in my mind but with this I was interested in creating an animal from the smoke on my screen. I started with a single image of coloured smoke that had nothing to do with anything in particular and started to manipulate it, change it, duplicate it, change the colours and hues as well as size until I started to see something interesting appear from the randomness. I noticed that some of the abstract smoke trails looked like dragon fly pincers and then wings. I took the images, manipulated them, altered them mirrored them and did everything within photoshop to create the image you see now. This Dragon Fly was the product of my imagination and as a created piece now printed on fine canvas paper, it has become a one of a kind piece of art. Nature and imagination were the unwitting inspiration for this piece, as well as an openness to randomness. I never know what I'm going to create and each piece created is unique. Now that I have printed this piece, after it sells, I will destroy the digital file, sign and number this piece and it is the only one, one of a kind that will never be replicated because of the random nature of the creative process. I chose this medium because it is inspiring and lets me create the totally chaotic images and colours that are at the start nothing but plumes of smoke into the creations you see. I decided to print this specific art piece as a large canvas print to be hung on a large wall where it will attract others to the room and create conversation. This is a one of a kind, limited edition of 1, digital print on canvas that will be signed, numbered and dated, after which I will delete the file from existence.
