Digital
Painting is still a relatively new realm in the
art world, but its popularity is ever-increasing.
Today's technology allows digital paint to emulate traditional
paints with ease, and as such digital paintings can exhibit
all the feeling of traditionally created art. Paintings can
be painted from a photo source, or completely from scratch.
Both result in beautiful paintings worthy of gracing any
wall or art show.
Digital Painting isn't limited to only fine art applications
either. Commercial applications for digital painting include
product packages, magazine illustrations, web design, and
so much more. Digital art is everyhwere. Welcome to the
21st Century!

"The proof is in the
pudding," or in the case of digital
painting, in the final painting! The "filtered" painting
looks like a distorted photo with strange grey swirls
running through it. On the other hand, the digital
painting exudes vibrance and a very "painterly" feel.
Individual strokes and dabs of paint are identifiable,
yet subtle, and show great texture and beautiful color.
The digital painting has also been edited from the
original. The dark railing and bench have been removed,
leaving the lighthouse as the main attraction without
distraction. How's that for a lasting impression?
