This is a photography post with a bit of a difference.
I mean – what do i do with a pic after i’ve taken it ?
With my new Nikon Camera (i use that term very loosely) I can already adapt a photograph thanks to the imaging tools on the camera
OK if i just want to switch the image from Colour to Black and White, and add a bit of Sepia, but what about an artistic angle ?
Here’s an original photo of the Fort at Albufeira in the Algarve, taken with my Sony DSC H-300 Bridge Camera
It looks good enough – i particularly like the anchor 🙂 but with a few tweeks using my Art Programs i get some lovely effects. This photo was edited with the latest edition of Corel painter essentials, but I also have a copy of adobes photoshop essentials to hand, should I want to create any layered effects.
Here’s the same photograph using an oil effect – very impressionist……
Here’s the photo using what Corel call a “Coloured Pencil” Effect
and here’s one using a “Modern” paint effect
They’re all a bit abstract in their way but they produced some great artwork!

We are working on this kind of subject, too. What you used for, to create the impression of hand painted art, is actually out dated and a set of graphic operations known as filters. We focus in special on the next step: results that made been possible by image analysis and artificial intelligence, but it’s still unpublished and in progress.

With respect fotoroto – i think you’d best pass that information over to Corel and Adobe – for its their toolboxes i’m using to create the art….i cant use tools that aren’t in existance

Thank you Inkdrop, that’s a good suggestion. Actually Adobe is noticed and mentioned tools already exist. Unfortunately not in their toolboxes, but you might like to see https://prisma-ai.com/
