Transform Your Photos To Art

Photography itself is a wonderful art form in itself.  Amazing images can also be transformed to photo art using graphics software. This can produce some very unusual and interesting photos which in turn provide more pictures for your photo album or online gallery. Photoshop and its cheaper alternative the Gimp provide many fine tools and filters that can turn a plain photographic image to a fine piece of art. For example why not add some digital painting effects to that boring old landscape image to produce a museum like painting. Perhaps that common photo of everyday trees and flowers could become an abstract art form with added colors and distortions. Why not just simply turn a photo to a black and white image with added grain for that old fashioned look. The possibilities are endless. One single photograph can be taken to produce a photo art series collection if the objects in the photo itself allow it. From experience some photographic images simply produce better photo art images than others. Its all a matter of testing colors, filters etc to produce that one of a kind photo. The important thing is too have fun and only keep the best of photo art pictures for publication and selling. Study the image closely. If it doesn't look quite right it probably isn't. Usually one will know in an instant if a photograph is suitable for a photo art piece after applying a few effects. Most photographic images are useable for photo art creations. More experienced Photoshop users will likely find it much easier than novice users. Novice Photoshop users can simply experiment with the various filters till they see something that catches their eye. That is okay too because some of the best photo art is created at random.
