The Austin Museum of Digital Art (AMODA) is a non-profit institution that promotes access to and appreciation of digital art. Currently AMODA is a nomadic institution, holding exhibitions, showcases, lectures, youth programs and other events at various locations around Austin, often in collaboration with other arts and educational organizations. Ultimately, AMODA is envisioned as a permanent venue for digital art -- a world class art museum in downtown Austin, open to the public. Our goal is to make AMODA a leading center in the community for art presentation, education and outreach. Our mission is to engage the public, educate the community and support artists in the creation, understanding and appreciation of digital art.

It is true that art museums are about the stubborn, matter-of-factness of things: the works of art. But access to the Art Institute's collection has always been enhanced by words and reproduced images. With the launch of our redesigned Web site, we acknowledge the importance of digitized access to the works of art. Here you will learn about the character and structure of our collection and our educational programs and exhibitions. You will also learn how to visit and contact us easily. I very much look forward to seeing you at the museum. James Cuno President and Eloise W. Martin Director

Here is a great post by dzinepress.com. It shows off more that 45 examples of Digital art by Rado Javor, a digital painter from the UK. His style has a history, classical element.

"In 1994, a few years after graduating from Edinburgh Art College with a degree in Drawing and Painting, I left Scotland for a new adventure in Hong Kong. I was struck by the sheer intensity of colours and design-style of all things Chinese, be that packaging, religious symbols, signs, labels or type. For three years, I received commissions from Hong Kong's major magazines and advertisers, but was frustrated by the limitations of the style I had created. My dream was realised when I won a place to study for a Masters at London's Royal College of Art. It was here that I discovered I could combine my drawing skills with the digital medium. This provided me with the tools I needed to realise my graphic visions. Gaining confidence in my new-found style, I returned to my Asian flavoured 'paintings' with gusto, this time bringing on board more elaborate and obscure sources, inspired by toys, communist-era propaganda, the Fifties, the Forties, sweets and packaging. In 2005, I returned to Asia for inspiration. This time moving to the romantic and inspirational former French Concession in Shanghai for a year-long sourcing adventure. I have now returned to my childhood roots of living by the sea, and now live in the beautiful English seaside city of Brighton."

Digital art - NOT for epileptics

A sub-forum of WetCanvas (a really HUGE art community) that I found particularly helpful. I just asked a dumb question like how to sign on your prints and I got 2 replies right away. Nice service! : ]

There are sticky threads like Threads Worth Reading!, or discussions of Post Card printing companies, Do you sell digital prints of your paintings?, Free Gallery / Bio Hosting Offer Open to all artists, Ebay Sales, or poll like

That's a great collection. Bantjes' is genius like all of her work. Ian - I like the combination of light and dark in yours. It has a very contemporary feel, but I also see some influences like Art Nouveau at work in it. Do you like Art Nouveau?

To cewsom: I do like Art Nouveau, especially the organic patterns. Glad that like this design (I put lots of thoughts in this, obviously), just like most of my customers. :P The combination of light and dark, including the colors, helps to create a certain mood. I hope it arouses some excitement without being excessive and over dispersive. Actually this design is based on my latest digital work, in which I tried to adopt and experiment some elements (colors, curves, etc.) I never used before.

WTF is Infinite Future Chaos?", we hear you ask. Fair question. To be honest, we don't really know what it means.

ProFolio is a professional ready to go portfolio that is perfectly suitable for both a personal portfolio or a more professionally oriented portfolio. Essentially anyone that wants an easy yet customizable way to display their graphical presentations such as photographs, digital art, web designs, etc would most likely be content with this software. Currently ProFolio is free, but the developers behind the software have been saying for as long as I've been aware of ProFolio that at some point in the somewhat near future they will be charging for further downloads. So, I wouldn't drag my feet too long before I gave this one a try.

This article features 42 of the most fantastic examples of photography / digital art with a focus on the human eyes that I have ever seen. I hope you all enjoy the gallery as it took some time to put together, and if you enjoy the artist's work, let them know.
