Sarah Davis


I am Sarah Elizabeth Davis and I am a Junior painting major. I enjoy almost anything except heights, negativity and sharks. My faith and my family are most important to me. I know close to nothing about digital arts and actually prefer creating art with my hands as opposed to a mouse. Regardless I am excited about learning more in this area especially with its growing relevance in the 21st century art world. After some research I found that I like the work of Jason Salavon. His distorted digital images and photographs look similar to an impressionistic style of painting. I especially enjoyed his "100 Special Moments" series where he took 100 images from the Internet, for example "Kids with Santa" and combined them all using a special formula including medium and mean. The results are quite interesting and his other amalgamations are just as beautiful. Check out the "Homes for Sale" and the class pictures series.
