Painting Photographs

Having been inspired by a friends paintings I have spent the last week study video tutorials on how to use Corel Painter X. This is a software program that allows you to upload your photographs to their software and then allows you to manipulate them wherever your creative genes lead you. It has been a lot of fun and I owe Donna a great deal for the inspiration.The top image is my finished image and the bottom one the original photograph. Between them is an interim stage that I could have finished at but was having too much fun to stop.
I am soliciting your comments not only on the painting but on the art form itself. How to you feel about Art and the Digital Age?
You may not be able to see the painting detail on the Blog, but if you click on the image you will get an enlarged version.
Donna is a talented photographer that has her own website at :

  5. Natural light in photography is crucial if you want to take great portraits. Many assume this means the time of day in which she can shoot her portraits is limited. Photography is used to preserve memories of favorite times, to capture special moments, to tell stories, to send messages, and as a source of entertainment.iPhone 11 Pro Camera
