6. Exhibition Blackburn Library: Otto Graser
The Blackburn Library in conjunction with Arteast is proud to present an exhibition.
Coordinators: Lore Organ at gomamlore@gmail.com; Josée Bourassa at Jbou1963@outlook.com;
Over the years, I have worked with several mediums: oils, acrylics, watercolors, etchings, etc. Lately (since I have my first Mac SE30) I have become fascinated in applying my artistic endeavors to exploring the world of digital art. The computer allows me to experiment with a vast array of tools: brushes, pens, pencils, textures and millions of colors.
Recently, I have been preoccupied with ArtRage 5, a standalone, drawing and painting application with incredible realistic simulation of the everyday world. I also toyed with the free application KRITA and others Procreate, HewPaint, Zen Brush 2 and Affinity Designer. The use of these applications (other than Photoshop) is greatly favored by the digital art community.
This is a unique opportunity for the public to enjoy, encourage and support local artists in their community as well as engaging with the Blackburn Library.
Location: 199 Glenpark Dr. Ottawa K1B 5B8.
Hours: Mon. through Thurs from 10 – 8:30
Friday from 1 – 6:00
Sat. from 10 – 5
Closed Sunday
