Realism

Takes subject matters of the ordinary and common world which we call "reality." It almost always takes a non-exotic and non-extraordinary subject matter and theme. There is no need to think outside of the box, as that is not "real." 

Surrealism 

A twist on Realism. It explores the subconscious mind, with subject matters concentrating on dream-images and often aims to distort the ordinary and what we call reality. Defies logic. Dreams and the workings of the subconscious mind inspire surrealistic art (French for "super-realism") filled with strange images and bizarre juxtapositions.

Digital Surrealism 

Surrealism is a cultural movement focused on type of arts to express about the artist’s idea themselves. In this digital era surrealism is one of the top digital art styles. How do you start creating surrealism?

  1.  Dream-like scenes and symbolic images
  2. Unexpected, illogical juxtapositions
  3. Bizarre assemblages of ordinary objects
  4. Conceptual photography and imaging

Capturing Your Dream 

  1. Sketch it out
  2. Find reference images

 Mindset During Creation

  1.  "Does this look real?"
  2. Make it happen to the best of your ability

Photoshop makes it easier than ever to create surrealist images, requiring just a modicum of photomontage skill to produce impressive results.
