This issue of Rustlings of the Wind features a selection of
pieces from the gallery of Noel Bebee. As is our tradition, we encourage you
to write a literary response to any of Noel's pieces in this issue.
Noel Bebee was a traditional artist, once upon a time. But that was before he
discovered the magic of the computer. Where once his concerns were of
chemicals, brushes and canvases, now they are focused on the digital canvas of
the monitor, pixels and pips.
Noel has created his genre of art by recognizing and incorporating traditional
techniques and digital technology. The texture of the screen, it's pixels,
becomes a characteristic of the art, used by the artist in the same way the
texture of the canvas is used by a painter.
Out of Line is a partnership of
artists, of which Noel Bebee is a member. Their online studio,
Computer Incubated Art,
features many more of Noel Bebee's computer-medium art pieces, as well as a
collection of some of his earlier, pre-digital pieces.
