Insight into the recent Digital Art Demonstration by Jacob Currie
Updated: Jun 9
On Monday night we had an enthralling digital art demonstration by the very talented Jacob Currie. He recreated a vision of Campbeltown which inspired him after a stay there.
Below is a time lapse video created by Jacob of his work that he demonstrated to society members. It was enlightening and entertaining to watch this original artwork come together and have explained by the Artist the methods he used.
We learned about the software Jacob uses and his creation of brushes in his pursuit to perfect digital artwork produced by himself. We saw the painting develop before our eyes from a starting sketch to a more refined finished artwork.
The demonstration by Jacob Currie was well received with many audience questions as he worked away at completing the digital artwork. We were all enthralled!
I am happy to say Jacob is now working with Barrow Bid to produce their catalogues and leaflets and I can't wait to see what this talented artist produces. We are certainly glad to have him on board as a member of our society with a lot of knowledge to share on this new to many of us form of creating fine Art.
Jacob Currie is the Artist behind our Barrow Society of Artists Logo. I think we may be seeing far more of his work locally in the near future.
A big thank you to Jacob for sharing his passion and his talent and answering the many questions as he diligently worked away. The presentation he provided was engaging and well presented.

Another well presented and informative demonstration talk by a talented young person. It's good that people are embracing new technology and creating work so inspiring and timeless.
