The classic way

Ever thought about the old classic painters ?? And ever tempted to use the “oil filter” in Photoshop ?? Do not do that. Use some layers instead and the make the Glow effect work for you. It is easier you may think. Give it a try and your normal pictures may get that “boom, boom” effect as well.

Prepare …

Prepare for the new set. Try – on all the stuff ready for the scene. This is a kind of adventure. And we see it will be fun but exhausting. Crazy, wild and rich of colors. You will see more of our future work very soon.

Another visit

She, my sexy neighbor Mrs. Robinson, asked me to join her for another excursion into the darkness of her ancient cellar. I agreed in a second and took a strong torch with me. I entered her house and we both went into the dark. We could see, that this cellar was indeed ancient. It was more cave cut out of the stone and the house built upon. Several caves and dark holes in the walls, not easy to look even with the strong torch. We needed more light. We i turned to her, the light went across the rough wall and in the light we found another painting:

WOW, her relative must have been a beauty and a sexy one as well, knowing how to play with man. It looks like she sat here in the cellar in the corner for her artist :) nude, smiling at him. Poor boy. Having such tempting girl for hour just in front of him. But we do not know the story. We just have this paintings on the wall. We went upstairs and had a cup of tea. Still waiting for the experts from the local Gallery.

In the cellar

I was ready to leave home for work, when suddenly she, my sweet neighbor, was again in the door. She was a bit nervous, a bit excited. She asked my to follow her. Ui, what a surprise entering her house, going downstairs into her cellar. She said, she found some paintings at the wall and was unsure what do do. I took my gaslighter when we reached the position at the wall and i switched it on. In the soft and warm light we saw this:

Again a pinting of her relative. WOW, this cellar must be very old and another thing was obvious: The painter had been in the cellar with all his painter equipment. A riddle, unsolved. What was the relation between the painter and the relative ? Until now, we don´t know. Mrs. Robinson, looking fascinated at the picture said, that she will call the local Gallery to get a final judgment on this painting….”They have specialists”, she said.

I switched off the gas lighter. It went really hot and nearly burnt my fingers. It was dark in the cellar and after a short while i switched it on again, moving it around and another surprise at the wall:

Mrs. Robinson was so excited. Perhaps this is worth lot of money. So she hurried away towards the next telephone. I quickly followed her. Stay tuned for updates …

Old Master

Looking old masters paintings in the local Gallery i was really surprised discovering this old ancient picture. Mrs. Robinson came asap into my mind. WOW, this must be a relative of her. I look the date: 1783… hui, that is old but this woman looks 100% like her, like twins. So i took a snap to compare it with the real Mrs. Robinson.

Back home i did what i had to do and was again surprised. YES it is like 100% twins. Well, i made a rough and quick print on copy paper and threw it into the letterbox of her with a written note on it: Your relative ??? Waiting for her to answer….
In real life do what i did here: Look thru your archive and pick a special portrait, look at it and imagine how it would look as an old masters oilpainting! Thats all and start to produce such. In this picture i decided to avoid all that typical cracks on the canvas just to keep the connection to the original digital image. But you can do what you like, even convert such in Black&White if you like !
