Portals - Joel Faber

Artist, Joel Faber, has created a number of computer art pieces with portals as the theme.  His work can look futuristic, mysterious, inviting or menacing among other things.  His use of repetition (shapes, color and value), pattern, and rhythm add up to artwork with an immediate impact.  You cannot help, but be drawn into these images (no pun intended)!

However you define and address our current theme: portals, there are countless ways to interpret portals in your work, whether two dimensionally or three dimensionally.  Consider how the formal elements of art (line, shape, form, space, texture, value and color), and principles of design ( balance, emphasis, movement, pattern, repetition, proportion, rhythm, variety and unity) can be harnessed to create a powerful, engaging work of art.

Have fun with YOUR expression of portals!  D. Exner
