FOX GAMES © 1989 Sandy Skoglund Decades before Photoshop was available, American artist Sandy Skoglund started creating surrealist images by building incredibly elaborate sets, a process which took months to complete.
Her works are characterized by an overwhelming amount of one object and either bright, contrasting colors or a monochromatic color scheme. Born in Quincy, Massachusetts in 1946, Skoglund studied studio art and art history at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts from 1964-1968. Moving to New York City in 1972, she started working as a conceptual artist, dealing with repetitive, process-oriented art production through the techniques of mark-making and photocopying. In 1978, she produced a series of repetitious food item still life images. Skoglund was an art professor at the University of Hartford between 1973-1976. Web-Based Email.

_ld4sqkhEgG1qza3e8o1_500.jpg (467×700) Layered Wood Pop Art. Mitch McGee calls what he does "somewhere between painting and sculpture.
" First, he illustrates an idea and then he cuts, sands and stains individual wood pieces by hand. Then, he starts building - from top to bottom - assembling the final pop art piece, sanding and staining the exposed edges. "The most challenging part of the process is figuring out the layering," he tells us. "The piece changes from the original sketch a little as I go because what works on paper doesn’t always work three dimensionally. I want everything to stack up in a way that makes sense so, even if most of a layer is hidden, the edges need to match the layer on top of it. " From illustration to framing, one individual work of art can take McGee, on average, between 35 and 40 hours to complete. If you thought McGee's art seems to be influenced by American pop art legend Roy Lichtenstein, you'd be right.
Incredible Action Sports Photography. After seeing Marcel Lammerhirt's amazing diving shot for Red Bull's 2010 photography contest, I knew I had to get in touch with him.
Though he started shooting professionally in 2005, this photographer broke into the business a year before, in a very creative way. In order to gain connections with pro snowboarders, he rented a nice Austrian house in the mountains and invited those in the snowboarding business to come over for shooting. "That mail disseminated all around the world so that in the winter, many well-known riders visited me and stayed for some days," he said. "I got my shots of the pros and they had the connections to the companies which was very useful for me.
I started to send the first pictures to snowboard magazines in December 2004. " A year later, he invested in some basic equipment and the rest is history. Lammerhirt is now known for his action sports photography which includes not only skiing and snowboarding but skateboarding, biking and cliff diving.
