Let's just call it art. [ for now ]


The word "Art" and me never really got along. Not a fan of art but always admired design. Hence why I got into the field. I'm still trying to come to terms with the whole "Art" thing. Always hated when people called me an artist. I'm a designer, a creative director, we take photos.... then people will tell me "You're an artist". Maybe they are right. But maybe they are wrong. Who knows, who cares. This weeks "Works of art" / free images are a collaboration of our team, some computers and cameras.

What inspired this weeks free images was a screw up with our HDR compositing software. It came out with some weird, yet interesting effects (see the ghetto blaster shot). So, instead of trashing the images we thought they'd make a nice addition to the archive. While we only had a few HDR image screw-ups... it inspired us to do some monster mash-ups of our own. So maybe, the computer and software is the real artist in the end. It created the movement. We just rolled with it.

We now have over 2000 free promotional images available to pre-registered users. Once we launch we will have over 60,000 images, illustrations, motion, audio and flash elements to choose from. Our loyal pre-registered users will get amazing promotional offers once the site launches. To pre-register, go to www.Stock-Archive.com
