DIGITAL SURREALISM
What is Realism?
-Takes subject matters of the ordinary and common world which we call
“reality.” It almost always takes a non-exotic and non-extraordinary
subject matter and theme. There is no need to think outside of the box, as
that is not “real.”
What is Surrealism?
-A twist on Realism. It explores the subconscious mind, with subject
matters concentrating on dream-images and often aims to distort the
ordinary and what we call reality.
-Surrealism is a cultural movement focused on type of arts to express
about the artist’s idea themselves.
-In this digital era surrealism is one of the top digital art styles.
Capturing your Dream
1. Sketch It Out
Take a piece of paper and pen/pencil or a tablet and start to sketch.
Draw your vision out roughly. Don't finesse any details yet, but just
lay out key points of your vision.
2. Find Reference Images
Gathering reference images will help you greatly in realizing your new
idea. Gather images that directly relate to what you have in mind.
