Immography is a multi-step process combining the elements of fine arts photography, traditional graphic arts, digital image manipulation, painting, drawing and sketching to create a unique result not easily obtainable from any one of the individual component art forms.
The final image -- a combination of the art forms, plus computer manipulation and enhancement, is intended to represent the "true vision" of the creating artist, freed from the limitations and constraints of other, more traditional and limiting artistic endeavours. This process also allows the artist to emulate styles and mediums he may not otherwise to able to use to create his desired images.
The name Immography is derived from combining the words "image", "morphing" and "photography". I have been working with this developing art form for nearly 20 years and find the creative potential and artistic freedom it provides unique, challenging and exciting. |
