New Media

What is new media, you ask? Digital art, computer graphics, computer animation, virtual art, interactive art, video games, computer robotics, 3D printing, art as biotechnology, and more!

Laura Kaschmitter

All my works, whether paintings or digital pieces, are begun with only the intention of letting happen what wants to happen and that I will do my best to help it be the best it can be. Sometimes I have a subject that I am thinking about but that typically tends to get in the way of the flow. I work mostly in acrylic and watercolor on canvas. I do enjoy the multi-media effects and love trying out new mediums and combinations to see what happens when one encounters another. I have always loved science and nature and am able to combine them within my art. If I receive any inspiration, it typically comes from my experiences in the outdoors, forests, or even my backyard garden. My pieces are for all age groups as they rarely have anything that is directly recognizable as an actual object. Although like the Rorschach test, people tend to see what they want to see.

I consider myself a pixel manipulator. I specialize in digital art since I wasn’t high school. That was 30 years ago when I began my love of computer graphics.

I consider myself a pixel manipulator. I specialize in digital art since I wasn’t high school. That was 30 years ago when I began my love of computer graphics.The apps on the android play store are the main apps I use. My objective has been to produce new media using generative new media apps. I like to push the limits of the app and create things that people aren’t doing yet I guess you could say that would be influencing. I find it relaxing and calming and very exciting.
