Bobby is an “end-to-end” digital artist (who does all the works himself) with specialised skills in image/video processing, digital generative [including Artificial Intelligence (AI)], and derivatives arts, etc., using diversified methods, multiple software, and techniques to derive his creatives. In terms of style and themes, Bobby likes colourful stuff. Although some of his works may carry similar themes, he believes “while imagination has no border, art has no limit”, and that includes injecting of digital science and AI into his artwork productions, at times to make them look futuristic. Bobby believes that most artworks existed due to the intention of the artist to “express” his/her feelings. In recent years, the rapid advancements in digital science may have added more techniques for an artist to do just that, which may otherwise be lacking in traditional arts. These more advanced techniques could include using Augmented Reality (AR), multimedia (e.g. audio and video), website, 3D modelling, virtual reality (VR), metaverse, etc., not to mention current extreme of using an “artificially intelligent“ artist to help him/ her “paint” his/her feeling. This application of digital science on traditional arts created a hybrid known as “Digital Arts”, which is understood by many as “artistic work or practice that uses digital technology as part of the creative or presentation process”. However, in Bobby’s opinion, whereas digital technology is mostly used on the creative process, it is currently underutilised in its use on the presentation. Bobby further believes the introduction digital science into arts would eventually bring about a paradigm switch as to how arts would be appreciated in the future, particularly in its presentation. For example, expression may no longer need to be confined to the creative itself as additional elements of surprise, participation, interaction, engagement, etc., may now be “extended” outside the realm of the original creative with the help of technology onto other “digital devices” such as mobile phones, VR glasses, etc. In the creative process, Bobby favors more derivative and generative arts over painting and brushes. Both techniques called for high-level digital processing using similar image processing and presentation software such as Adobe, PowerPoint, and beyond. Bobby is never afraid to experiment futuristic digital methods and software to meet his artistic objectives in the following elements within his artworks: (1) Light (e.g., shining contrast); (2) Space (e.g., depth, 3D); (3) Time (e.g., still or motion) ; (4) Optical Illusion

Digital Arts with QR Technology inserted, allowing audience to view the artwork from another aspect, and even listen to a song. Digital Arts could not really be measured by size but by pixels as good resolutions images could fit something as small as a phone but as big as a TV set. This artwork has a resolution of 1080 (H) x 1920 (W) pixels, which is equivalent to industry-standard Full HD 1080p. This is about 28.6 cm x 20 50.8 cm in dimension, based on a rather meaningless scientific conversion. Please also note that the QR technology requires the code to be exact square to function. Please take this into considerations should the image needs to be resized or stretched. So long as this requirement is met, they work and does not matter whether the image remain “digital” on digital frames, monitor, tv, through projection using projector, etc., or otherwise printed.
