COMMENT FROM ONE OF OUR CURATORS
@web-gnar: This artist is working with a computer program called Processing, to create these works. The medium that he is manipulating is computer code to generate these drawings. To me, this is the purest form of digital art. It's almost like psychic art, if you could create art with your mind without touching anything. I wanted to call attention to this artist to encourage creative coders to try their hand at processing.

COMMENT FROM ONE OF OUR CURATORS
@web-gnar: This artist is archiving his work on the blockchain. Today, he posted 20 scanned images from one of his sketchbooks. All of them are pretty good. This one stood out because of all the energy in the markmaking. It reads as an abstract composition in how the picture plane is balanced. His drawings are of abstract subject matter where there is usually an object floating in the middle of the page.

@web-gnar: A photo and a song from this artist. Its an interesting action-shot with a fisheye lens. The song is good and the skate-aesthetic nicolcron is producing here on steemit is the real deal. For someone who has only been dabbling in music for a couple months, this is pretty awesome to see. you can listen here:

COMMENT FROM ONE OF OUR CURATORS
@web-gnar: A Raw aesthetic here in a abstract composition with a bunch of faces. Lots of sensibilities to color, texture and mark-making. Notice too, the pieces of yellow tape stuck to the paper. When an artist is working with color and balance alone, without figurative elements, its really all about balancing the picture plane without being too contrived. Intentional randomness. The pieces of tape act as a piece of "color" that can assist the eye's flow around the piece.

COMMENT FROM ONE OF OUR CURATORS
@web-gnar: A ball point pen drawing of a man smoking a cuban. It's unfortunate that the image of the drawing is so poor, There would be some very sensitive mark-making going on in this one. Thats a nice effect you can get with a ball point pen when you use it to shade like that, @jerry815. I didn't know one could create such soft blends with a ball point pen, or "Pino" as you say in Indonesian, thanks for sharing, and next time, its worth it to photograph your work in bright natural light to prevent blurring. Better yet, use a scanner for works on paper! :)

@web-gnar: It's good to receive photos of artwork in a gallery setting for these artzone posts. It's a nice touch to bring in the real art world to the virtual Steem blockchain art world sometimes. This is from Spanish art expo in Valencia.

COMMENT FROM ONE OF OUR CURATORS
@web-gnar: This image really caught my eye in the thumbnail feed. Inspired by the opening of a Tesla Motors branch in Athens Greece, this artist has created a digital collage. The gold background and sea foam foreground work well together. Its a high quality JPG and the artist's eye for an interesting landscape composition is apparent.
Some kind of Tesla charging station there in the rocks, they look like teleporters. Maybe thats just because there is a Greek God throwing a SpaceX rocket like a javalin up to Saturn, where there is a Tesla roadster driving around the rings of Saturn.
