About Digital  Painting

  • Digital Painting is an emerging art form in which traditional painting techniques such as watercolor, oils, impasto, etc. are applied using digital tools by means of a computer, a digitizing tablet, stylus, etc. Digital painting differs from other forms of digital art and computer generated art, in particular, in that it does not involve the computer rendering from a model.

My Philosophy

To create a painting I start with a drawing, or I scan a didital photo. I hand brush and blend the pixels using a digital paintbrush stylus. I use the exact same motion and technique when I apply a traditional paintbrush to canvas. I love painting this way; I have total control over color and light, this allows me to bring out the emotional expressiveness of the image. When the digital painting is complete, I transfer the image to fine artist canvas using rich UV archival pigments and a state of the large-format giclee art printer.
