Technology is technology and then art form and people's creativity is another thing. Anything that helps an artist do anything - great! Technology for technology sake doesn't mean much to me anyway.
The technology keeps moving forward, which makes it easier for the artists to tell their stories and paint the pictures they want.
I've never considered musical equipment very sacred.
A writer needs a pen, an artist needs a brush, but a filmmaker needs an army.
Pens?" Chase echoed. Bridget rolled her eyes. "Pens are by far more stimulating than most people." "I'm kind of wondering what you're going with those pens," Chase said Madison scrunched up her nose. "Get your mind out of the gutter." "My mind is always in the gutter around you.
When you make music, you're forming these invisible vibrations in the air into different shapes and consistencies and speeds in order to create music, and understanding how the math of that works just gives you more colors to paint with, and allows you to get to what you want quicker.
Said Hamlet to Ophelia, I'll draw a sketch of thee. What kind of pencil shall I use? 2B or not 2B?
The computer is a tool, just like pencil or charcoal, allowing illustrators to manipulate images from their sketchbooks.
I use a little brush only for really small details. Over the years, I've started to use a much larger brush.
A poet needs a pen, a painter a brush, and a director an army.
Probably one of the worst things that happened to photography is that cameras have viewfinders.
I regard photography and film simply as new technical means which painters must absolutely make use of, just as from time out of mind they have made use of brush, charcoal and color. It is certain, however, that photography and film must become as evocative for the sensibility as pencil, charcoal and brush. (1927)
An artist creates songs and timeless moments that are reflections that impact culture, and you can do that in any way - with guitars, ukelele, a computer. So, that will never die. It's always the artist behind the computer, not the computer.
Speaks cheerful English and in the past has written this language with a paintbrush that talks.
People who draw tend to think they're craftsmen, so they really want to hang onto their pens and papers, but it's not terribly productive. To be honest with you, it's faster and easier to start with the computer.
I'm allowing myself every opportunity, every tool that every other artist should allow themselves to use. If anybody expects me to not use certain language or certain words, like I have some kind of penalty restriction, it's completely unrealistic.
If I were alive in Rubens's time, I'd be celebrated as a model. Kate Moss would be used as a paint brush.
I came to feel an artist might use anything - a dot, a line, the most conventional or unconventional symbol - t say what he wanted to say.
I love to photograph the tools of one's trade: Duncan Grant's paintbrushes, the typewriter of Herman Hesse, or even my own guitar, a 1957 Fender Duo-Sonic.
He tosses aside his paint-pots and his words a foot and a half long.
Art can heal it if art is allowed to exist. And if art is slowly wiped off the face of the planet, then what tools do we have to reach people, to appeal to them and all of their senses?
I especially love all the instruments of art: inks, pens, paintbrushes, watercolors and oils, fine papers and canvases, and although I love to mess around with these tools and objects, I have minimal artistic skills.
Movies are a medium of expression like a symphony orchestra...or a painter's brush and canvas.
To me, a drop of oil paint or a xerographic dot are the same thing - they're all just language.
When you are an artist you can turn your hand to anything, in any style. Once you have the tools then all the artforms are the same in the end.
