Title: Any Digital artists (Painters) here? Post by: SMILING DOG on March 21, 2020, 02:17:09 AM Just curious, does anyone do digital paintings on here? Printing on canvas and fine art papers? Or are most of you photographers printing your images from your camera and Photoshop/Light Room? I've not seen any posts that would indicate otherwise.
I hope you guys are being safe and staying home. Lots of time to experiment with your photography. I realize I may have posted to wrong topic - tried to remove. Sorry. Title: Re: Any Digital artists (Painters) here? Post by: Terry-M on March 21, 2020, 05:18:14 PM Hi,
I have Corel Painter Essentials which I play around with now and again. This is a mono charcoal sketch did last year for a mono print competition: https://www.flickr.com/photos/terry-m_flickrphotos/49098853571/in/album-72157711164451613/ (https://www.flickr.com/photos/terry-m_flickrphotos/49098853571/in/album-72157711164451613/) These are results of some experiments I did in ~2017 https://www.flickr.com/photos/terry-m_flickrphotos/albums/72157675765806543/with/32313973701/ (https://www.flickr.com/photos/terry-m_flickrphotos/albums/72157675765806543/with/32313973701/) Terry Title: Re: Any Digital artists (Painters) here? Post by: RKrambs on March 21, 2020, 09:57:33 PM Hi Terry! Nice to meet you. By trying to change my user name, (formerly Smiling Dog) I accidentally deleted my account. So I have re-registered with the new user name. I'm glad to see someone else who enjoys digital painting like myself. I mainly paint portraits - people and pets using Corel Painter. I had trouble seeking advice about sharpening a few months back, as most could not relate to the lack of detail that my images were showing - thus a painting is not expected to have the same detail as a photograph and they were adamant that I had ruined the original in Photoshop. Clients send me their photographs for me to paint, which I print on my Epson 9880. QU is the best money I have ever spent on this hobby/business.
Thanks for your response and sharing your fun paintings. I'm glad there is someone else here who shares my interest. I tried to attach the image of my last painting, but it wouldn't go - must be too large even though I reduced sizing considerably. It printed perfectly as a gallery wrap with QU! |
