Image Art Workshop: Creative Ways to Embellish & Enhance Photographic Images

by Paula Guhin

This book teaches the reader to think of a photograph as a canvas for a wide range of artistic manipulation and coloring techniques. Once upon a time, you hesitated to even take scissors to a photo (even an imperfect one) because if you lost its negative, you’d also lose that moment in time forever. In this day of digital images and photo printers for thehome computer, photographs are easily duplicated, so you never have to be concerned about preserving printed photos. You can cut, color, collage, and camouflageto your heart’s content. The photo is now an art medium that can be altered physically ordigitally to create all kinds ofeffects.

Much of the information is old news, but there are enough new techniques to make it worth the purchase price.
