Step-by-step instructions on how to create a “Watercolor” impressionistic style photo painting using Adobe Photoshop and Corel Painter.
Getting Creative with Technology
Painters have used photographs to jump-start their projects since the advent of photography.
Degas, Cezanne, Monet and Picasso- and Norman Rockwell – are just a few of the big name painters that embraced the advantages of new technology into their workflow.
The question often asked is, “Why would an artist “cheat” and use a photograph instead of creating the painting from scratch?”
I’ve always found this interesting because in few other fields do people question the authenticity of using technology as an aid in creating their products and services.
