My Steps to make a Painting

This is an example of how I produce a painting. Any photo you have can be turned into a creative original piece of art that will last throughout generations.

 First-Here is an old photograph I found in an estate sale from the Fifties

 

 

 

Second I made a drawing in simple contour lines

 

 

 

Third- I made a paper collage, getting a feel for the shapes and colors 

 

 

 

Fourth-- I scanned the drawing into my computer, then using photo shop,  i could play with the colors and textures a bit more .

 

 


 

 Last- the final oil painting
