Pet Watercolor Digital Art Painting (WDAP)
Instead of traditional paints and brushes, I use computerized brushes with an endless palette of paint colors (and less clean up) to create a one-of-a-kind custom watercolor digital art print of your furry friend. To achieve this unique “watercolor” look, lines and painting techniques are hand-done (as opposed to relying on Photoshop filters) with a computer, graphic tablet and an electronic stylus.
Choose a favorite snapshot of your furry friend (click here for tips on choosing the right photo) and it'll be transform it into an original digital art portrait on quality watercolor paper.
Ink & Paper
All WDAP portraits are printed using Giclee Printing, which is the highest quality digital ink jet printing available for fine artists today. These archival quality inks guarantee that your pints last a lifetime without fading or loss of color.
All WDAP portraits are printed on 310gsm watercolor paper. This 100% rag, acid free, warm white watercolor paper complies with the highest archival standards and is extremely age resistant. Its textured finish and rigidity of this fine art watercolor paper provides an authentic look and feel for reproductions of watercolor art.
