My newest Photoshop painting is based on a seascape I saw while visiting the New Hampshire coast last year. As I began work I was going for as realistic a look as possible, but halfway through I started loosening up and experimenting with more abstract shapes and intense colors. Every new project is a chance to try out different things and learn from experience!
I had the finished painting printed on a canvas measuring about 4 feet by 2 feet. The original Photoshop file is over 14,000 pixels wide. I paid a lot of attention to small details, so up close you can see things like the spray from the wave and individual blades of grass.
My only small regret is going with canvas instead of paper, since the texture of the canvas tends to blur the details a bit when you get up close.
