Traditional vs. Digital Surrealism

 Traditional Surrealist:  R.S. Beal
Death Judging War

In this image the artist is using many different types of oil paints. I find it interesting the many different objects that appear in the piece.  It makes you think of the emotion he was feeling when creating this art work.  It is basically trying to show death that is draped through the whole piece.  I like the different colors used throughout along with the way the sky looks.  The oil paints give it a great looking texture along with the colors used.

Digital Surrealist: Tom Repasky
Look Out

In this photo the artist uses different images that they have taken to create their overall composition.  They used basic photo manipulation to animate some of the images, including the person that you see before you in the image.  It makes me wonder why the person is looking outside of that monument and why he is holding his hands up in that way.
