BOGOMIL VARIATION 1

Created in 2012, Bogomil Variations are a set of cooperative works by Artist Otto Rapp (Canada/Austria) and Artist/Photographer Michael Wolik (USA). Otto Rapp provided the original artworks, paintings and drawings, and Michael Wolik transformed them digitally into design variations.

The process of taking a scan from an original traditional artwork and transforming it digitally, as opposed to producing a digital work from scratch, is that it retains all the textural qualities of the original, that is, brush strokes and marks, and pencil marks. The finished product retains that 'handmade' look of traditional art.

I just recently "re-discovered" these images in my files, so I thought I share them with my Steemian friends.

The entire set, consecutively numbered, consists of 15 images.
10 images are derived from black and white pencil drawings, and 5 images are derived from a acrylic painting.

STAY TUNED
black and white images 6 to 10, and color images 11 to 15 will be featured in the next two installments.

“Collaborations work best this way; when there's a mutual desire to see what the other side adds. You know that what you're making on your own has value but the sum is more than the parts and every part knows it.”
