storytelling through fine art photography
Painterly
A painterly affect in a photograph requires two main components in post
production, using textures to emulate canvas or cloth and textures that mimic
brushstrokes. Using these techniques transforms the original photograph to an
image that are characterized by qualities of a painting.
My artistic journey began as a painter. However, the medium of photography gives
me an infinite palette to explore my creativity. Painterly photography is like a dance
between painting and photography. Sometimes I create images using a collage of
my photographs and then applying textures until my vision is achieved. The finished
image is not only my interpretation of the photograph but a way of transforming
the photograph into a story.
