Oil on canvas scan; Adobe Photoshop filters; Wacom Intuos3 used for retouching
Using a scan of an old oil on canvas painting I did some time ago, I put this magazine image through my “Photoshop garage” before adding a few choice Photoshop filters and fooling around with the colour saturation. Some areas of the face were touched up courtesy of my Wacom pen particularly under the eyes where some burning was required to enhance facial tones and expression.The text on the right of the image was resized and floated on top of the face and the “LOOK” text which is part of my font collection, was rotated into place last. Some levels adjustment and a couple of “coffee ring” stains came last along with that neat “fingerprint” mark in the top left hand corner…Well, that’s the “look” I was going for anyway.. |
