What Exactly is Photo Art?

Aug 26, 2007

Photo art is taking any photograph and turning it into a masterpiece. There are a few ways this can be done, such as using programs like Photoshop or Adobe illustrator. The results from both these programs can be spectacular from well trained users. However, there are a few problems with these programs. They are expensive, complicated, and in many cases require powerful computers to run the software. For the novice or intermediate computer user, these programs may not appear to be user friendly at all.

Today, there is good news for the novice and intermediate computer user. You can create your own photo art easily online with Photofiddle.com. Imagine just having to select one of of 50 photo art design styles (oil painting, Warhol pop art, modern art, or many others), uploading your photo, and then cropping and previewing the artwork online. Finally, you decide whether to have it delivered on a museum quality stretched canvas or as a framed commercial quality art print. As soon as you receive your stretched canvas or framed art print, it will be ready to be hung on the wall right out of the box.

Decorating can be a combination of fun and extremely rewarding experiences, and at the same time, it can also be very frustrating. Usually, it is the small things that drive you nuts with any home decorating project. At times, finding the perfect artwork can be a daunting task. I have wasted countless hours driving from store to store and passing through every aisle looking at what seems to be the same artwork. Even worse, the amount of wasted time spent online looking for the perfect artwork only left me exhausted and frustrated. However, the solution is much easier than you might think.

If you are like me, you probably have either a shoe boxes full of photos, or a hard dive full of digital pictures of the holidays, vacations, family, weddings, etc. As such, I have come to the realization that those personal photos can be helpful in home decorating. By using Photofiddle, you can transform your treasured memories into works of wall art that can be tailored to your individual needs. As Jill Waage the decorating editor of Better, Homes & Gardens said the artwork created on Photofiddle is a "jaw-dropper". It is easier than you think creating beautiful works of art for any home decorating project.

Select a photo you want to create your artwork from.
Select one of the 50 Photofiddle online design styles like oil, pop art, watercolor, etc.
Upload your photo, crop, and apply design.
Preview online your personal masterpiece in about 30 seconds.
You can even have photofiddle email 5 additional online styles to your friends and family.

Once you are happy with your artwork, the final step requires you to decide whether you want it delivered on a museum quality canvas or art print. Upon delivery, the stretched canvas or framed art print will be ready to be hung on your wall to complete your home decorating project.
