Information Is Beautiful | Ideas, issues, knowledge, data - visualized! My Chuck Close Problem. Scott Blake self-portrait made with color tiles (2008) (click to enlarge) (all images courtesy the artist) When one of the world’s richest living artists orders you to stop making art, you do it. Or do you? That is what Chuck Close has done to me. In response, I have developed a 100-year plan that will allow my digital art to outlive any threats of legal action. I started working on my Chuck Close Filter in September of 2001.
The idea came to me the month prior, when I flew to Los Angeles for the Adobe Design Achievement Awards. The creators of Photoshop gave me first place in the Creative Illustration category for my “Barcode Jesus” portrait. I have been working with computers (both artistically and otherwise) since 1988, when I was 12 years old. Allow me to explain how the Chuck Close Filter works: I start by using Photoshop to dissect Close’s portraits into hundreds of tiles.
Finally, in 2008, the internet became fast enough to accommodate the Chuck Close Filter. I replied: He wrote: Com. Bad at Sports. ArtsyPoses. "Bolero" FULL VERSION Animation. Welcome to DigiLantes. Artwork Inspired by Art Models. Photo References. ARTnatomy | ARTnatomía.
