Upcoming Exhibition

10/19/2012

There are piles of framed archival prints of my digital work stacking up around
my studio in preparation for this big exhibition. Most of them have never been
brought into the "real" (tangible) world before, and I am reminded again of how
much work it is to transform an image from the medium of light on a screen into
an acceptable reflective print. On the other hand, it's been very exciting and gratifying
to see these works printed out big and framed, and looking so good.

The image here on the invitation card is a hybrid, starting with a pastel painting,
which was scanned and transformed in the computer. The final print was worked
over with pastels again.

About
the Artist

Nancy Freeman is a native of California who lives now in Washington, DC. A lifelong artist, she paints portraits and other commissions for a living, which keeps her traditional skills tuned and supports her decades-old obsession with computer art, and pastel painting.

She is currently using her 15th, 16th, 17th, and 18th computers, but remembers
when Dick Tracy had to make do with a two-way wrist radio.
