Make an artwork using photography

Getting the right picture.

It's important to choose a good photograph for a painting before you start. The importance of choosing a good photo for an artwork is essential, light an shade play a key role. You must consider your style and what photographs work with it, not every picture will translate well. If you cannot take the photo yourself, stock photo images can easily be used to work from, and the selection process is important.

Using a lightbox or Projector to create paintings.

It was a practice to utilize a camera obscura to create paintings, long before photography. The real world was re-created with these techniques. Artists making art often employ lightboxes and projectors to make their pieces these days. Light boxes illuminate photos from below and work well when creating water colours and pencil drawings. Canvases and murals are best developed using projectors, either ones made for art, or those used to project flims or TV. You can link them directly with a PC or camera to project an photograph directly onto the painting. This makes working from a photograph a lot quicker.

Draft square and segmenting.

You could segment a photo as another way to utilize it. Divide the canvas into squares and then the photo into those same quantity of squares. We can then work on small parts of the picture at a time and have a clear referance to that photograph in the same square. This stops you sketching what you think that you see, and reminds you of what is literally there, as every square becomes a tiny picture in itself. With extra squares you obtain a more true copy. Don't over do it though as too many squares can become bewildering to deal with, decide on an amount you'll be comfortable with .

Freehand sketching.

Finally, it's very important to ensure you do enough freehand painting, and illustration. Not only does this give a more fluid painting but allows for the more inspiring unique piece. Pinning a photograph to the painting, permits you to continuously refer to it, while providing you with the liberty to improvise.
