reports, September 20, 2007
reports, September 20, 2007Is there such a thing as local art now? With us all using the internet and seeing other cultures art styles are we heaading for a universal style that incorporates everyone and everything?
This article looks into British art and what this little country has to offer the global scene.
An artist that really caught my eye with their style is
incorporating her Chinese heritage into her style.
"My art style isn't hugely different to others, being almost exclusively anime-based, although being influenced by traditional Chinese art.It's only recently that I've done more typical anime art purely as a test to see if I COULD conform, because since I'm still at a stage where I'm trying new things all the time, I have to make sure I have all the basic techniques down before I can develop or discard things to create a style I call my own."
Another promising artist is
"I think there are a lot of very talented artists in Britain at the moment but I do find some of the more contemporary art seems to be made just to shock people, and i find that style of work unsettling (but I think that’s the artists plan)"
"That’s a hard one, My art style seems to vary a lot depending on my mood but I do do some art nouveau style drawings that in the past have been compared to Aubrey Beardsley im obviously not as good as him but maybe one day (fingers crossed)"
An aspiring artist that prefers a darker style.
"I'm studying Animation & Illustration at University at the moment so yes, I would really like to make a career out of it but I highly doubt it will be easy as I'd imagine very few careers are (especially creative ones)."
A thought provoking photographer next.
I like her style and indivuduality.Some truely beautiful images.
Fractal and abstract artist
has a great gallery with plenty of colours and interesting ideas.
Photographer
has an interesting range of subjects in his gallery.
Talented digital artist
has a wonderful gallery to view.
A HUGE THANKYOU to all of the people who
sent me their work to look at!
Thankyou for reading this article and I hope you visit some of the artists pages and show them some love!

Deviousness
`karemelancholia is one of the most genuine deviants you could ever met. Always active and a true deviantART cheerleader and supporter in every aspect. You can always count on her to lend a hand or get involved, and you usually will find her doing large amounts of both at any given moment.
She's consistently reports on contests around dA, showcases the efforts of her fellow artists and shows her charitable side through various activities. Besides all of this, she's a truly talented artist which is why she's an obvious choice for deviousness this month. Read More |

Devious Comments
certainly Manga and anami would not have moved so fast across the world with out the ease of acess the nternet provides, and also useing the internet to display work gives global feedback that is not self limiting by local attitudes.
I think many british artists have found a kind of freedom of restriction from Populist works being imposed on them via there own country.
Seems to me that the current trend for British are is to shock as I quoted above. Its all about dead things in formaldahide and piles of manure. Surely we can do better than this?

I'm sure there's many perceptions of the stereotype. It's just nice to be able to show Britain's true work.
And it's not just with the art, but with the quote too.
HOORAY indeed for Britishness.
