An Emerging Art Form
Believe it or not, these paintings are not oil on canvas. ..They ARE paintings… but not in a traditional sense.
They are created in Photoshop using custom brushes and a Wacom tablet.
For over a year, I have been studying this technique under master oil painter and one of the technique founders Michelle Parsley.
As my studies progress, I continue to learn how to faithfully reproduce work done in oil paints- all in Photoshop.
One-click filters usually won’t allow you to deviate from the photograph very much (if at all) and generally have a very “mechanical” appearance.
The time to paint oil on canvas is extensive. Easily a six-month or more time investment. Photoshop paintings can be complete in as little as 4 weeks
Oil is expensive. Canvas is expensive. The time required to create oil on canvas means even more expense. The cost of a Photoshop painting is roughly 1/3 of that of traditional oil on canvas making this beautiful art form accessible to most. If budget is a concern, you can have the look of oils at a fraction of the price.
Don’t live in Pennsylvania? No problem! I will ship Photoshop paintings directly to your door. This is something you simply do not do with oil on canvas.
