Technology/Equipment Grant for Individual Artist
New computer and scanner for digital art production and developing a web presence. I will use the equipment to convert my traditional 2D drawings onto the computer where I can edit and upload them to websites. I can also create digital drawings and paintings using software that I can purchase monthly subscriptions with using my own money. Furthermore, I would like to focus on making short mostly hand drawn animations. Finally, I will develop a professional artistic web presence by uploading the work I complete with the grant money onto art hosting website and eventually my own website.

By obtaining a new computer and scanner, with the help of the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council Tech Grant, I will be able to combine my interests in traditional and digital art. I will do this by creating traditional pencil drawings and scanning them into the computer. After they become digitized, I can choose an art program such as Adobe Photoshop or After Effects to create digital paintings or videos. To promote my work to a larger audience, I will upload my artwork to an art hosting website such as mnartists or Vimeo so I can start having a professional web presence. To evaluate my progress I will monitor my upload rate of completed projects on my chosen art hosting website(s).
