N. Blake Seals is a Paramedic and an Organ Transplant Coordinator. He is also an award-winning graphic novelist. But what he's actually been doing for the better part of the last thirty years is creating huge amounts of largely abstract visual compositions using a Macintosh computer. Part autobiography, part memoir, and part artistic manifesto, There's No Such Thing As Digital Paintings is an entertaining career retrospective for a career that, by and large, nobody's known about. With a spattering of irreverant essays, Blake illuminates a comprehensive collection of his mixed media digital paintings spanning more than three decades - along the way defending the computer as an authentic medium for artistic expression while finding his way as an outsider from the philosophical and historical conversation of art traditionally reserved for the academia/gallery/museum crowd. Blake's buddy, Gary, who holds an MFA and is a professor at an art college, offers some "professional" opinions as to whether or not Blake is accomplishing whatever it is that he thinks he is doing.
