Scott Engel: Fly by Night

Digital painting of photographs has really taken a leap in the last few years thanks to artists like Scott Engel.

Scott says this about this particular piece. “Fly By Night”

I was out photographing in Simmons Woods Park, in Pewaukee, Wisconsin around Halloween last year, when I was inspired by the near-dusk flight of some geese. Having […]

Artist: Sarah Francesca Fischer

Intoxicated by joy is probably the best phrase that I can use when reading Sarah’s blog, writings and looking at her artwork. The passion, joy, and the surprise are evident in her work. I’d almost use the term “play” instead.

My artistic style I used to pen as “stream of consciousness flow” ..now, however I’d call […]

Artist Hideout Screensaver

Here’s the screensaver installation file. The screensaver is built using flash.
the last submission was from Ed Maskevich entitled Strong Sunlight. I think I may keep this open for awhile still (I can always add more images) and it’s nice to be able to feature your work in such a tangible way. Thanks […]

I think this is going to be an Abstract Expression Screensaver

Martha Marshall just submitted her painting Echoes III for the screensaver that I am putting together. Martha frequently puts together paintings for interior design applications, she apparently is the oldest artist I’ve ever received an email from, being 250 years old (according to her blogger profile) and you can find her other blogs from […]

Another Screensaver Submission from Casey Klahn

Casey Klahn submitted his artwork for the screensaver project. His website, The Colorist shows off more of his wonderful pastel work in abstract expressionism.

It’s really great to be able to interact with everyone like this and receive your submissions for this project since I extended it to include more people. There is still time to […]

Submit your Art for a free screensaver. My Christmas gift to you!

Okay, Here goes nothing! I have been thinking about how to celebrate Christmas here on Artist Hideout. I couldn’t think of anything I could give so I figured out an idea on something I could make for everyone. The typical artists response for the week of Christmas.
Maybe this will be a […]

Okay, I admit it.

I recently watched a Weird Al Video collection. Lately I have been able to get some of those tunes out of my head. But this morning as the really dumb song started flitting through my head, a thought occurred to me. It was the song “Dare to be Stupid”

EmptyEasel.com: Submission to the Uncontest.

Dan over at www.EmptyEasel.com submitted this design. I really like this one. It’s clean and really easy to read. He even kept some of the elements from my earlier submission. I like the little byline there too, which I hadn’t thought of. It definitely brings to the blog a branding element that I haven’t really […]

Logo design #1 and the “uncontest”

Okay here is the deal…
over at b5media, a few (good) changes are happening.

new templates
new ad systems
and just a better and cleaner/smoother interface all round.

Well, the arts and crafts area is slated to be re-templated soon. My current logo doesn’t fit the specs and I am already growing tired of it anyway.
So, […]
