With this portrait I chose to experiment with the Art History brush. As I had never used this brush before I was trying to create a ‘paintly’ effect to the image. The original layer was a photography which the Art History Brush uses to build the final image (image 1). I really like the results; though the process is very simple as you do start off the image creation with a photograph there seems little ‘artistic’ expertise needed. The skill of using this tool is to capture what detail you want without just recreating a photo realistic image. The advantages of using a tool like this are that there is so many results which can be achieve. By using all the different brushes and loosening or tightening the brushstroke the image can become as abstract or realistic as you like.
