Here are some of my new works. The emphasis is on no backgrounds, highkey painting and textures. These are part of my new program I will launch at the SWPP convention in London in January. I amworking on both traditional and extreme methods of painting that will stretch the idea of digital painting of portraits. There are many new paintings coming in
a variety of styles. I’m looking to stretch the imagination as well as keep my private commissions happy.
Stay tuned for more exciting news as I have been contacted by a major fashion handbag company to do licensed paintings just for their handbags. This should be FUN!!
Very well done - all of you. Is it possible to perhaps tell us what brushes you are using in regards to oil, watercolour, acrylic. I was wondering about the second from bottom. The paint is so textured ( raised) very interesting.

Hi Gwen,
If you mean the ones that I did, the blonde woman with the pink background? That is a texture
I applied in PSCS2 and worked it where I wanted it. But in Painter there are some brushes in IMPASTO brushes that will give you textures without paint…….Go PLAY Gwen….

Can you explain this process? I’m confused.
Comment by Alison — March 20, 2008 @ 9:24 am
Alison, what is confusing? It’s the way most of the art is developed now by most of the people I not only know, but also in the art world. It starts out either totally scratch from a blank file that is painted on with a Wacom tablet using software that can paint. The top of the line best program with the most realistic brushes and options is Corel Painter X. Also, you can paint from a photo reference created by yourself. Read the article on the right hand side that is listed under popular posts: Corel Painter Magazine Article to get more technical information. After printing on giclee canvas, the print is treated with gel coatings and acrylic or fast drying oil based paints for emphasis and sometimes also gold leafing and many other options available to create it as multi media art.
Would be happy to give you more references to show how this is all done.
You will find much more information at my newest blog site: www.marilynsholin.com/blog
There are movies and other information there plus tips and tricks for Corel Painter and now to use it to create digital art.
