I Create Photo Digital Art - But What is it?
As its title suggests, photo digital art has its foundations in photography. The final piece of work being based
on or inspired by a photograph or series of photos.
Is it art or a photograph?
For me its both, a photograph is something I take on my phone or using a point and shoot camera in auto
mode. A photograph becomes a piece of art when I take time composing the image in the view finder,
then tweaking the settings in manual mode until I achieve the desired look in camera. Alternatively, a photo
becomes art when I manipulate it in Photoshop, adding blurs, textures, colours or combining it with other
photographs.
The artwork shown below started out as a photograph I took in my glasshouse during the last week of April
this year. The one to the right has its beginnings in a stock model photograph from Envarto Elements. Both
images have been manipulated and turned into photo art using Photoshop. You decide, is it a photograph or
art? There is no right or wrong answer, each of us has a view and I’m just grateful that you have taken the
time to stop on these two pages and look at my artwork.
More about me
As a photo digital artist my customers come from two distinct groups, those that want a portrait photograph
taken and then blended into a scene and those that want some unique artwork to decorate their home or
office. Both have one thing in common, they are looking for something different, something created specially
for them, something that they can be proud to hang on their wall and show off on their social media pages,
such as the example shown on the inside cover of this magazine.
If that sounds like you then get in contact with me, let’s chat about what you are looking for and see if we can
create something special just for you.Email: [email protected] Website: mycreativeimages.com36 Sarracenia - Snowflake
