PhotoSynthesis by Quiet Heart

Blurring the lines between clarity and impression... thought and emotion... reality and imagination... My new work, which I call PhotoSynthesis, combines the expressiveness of painting with the realism of photography. To create my images I begin with a digital photograph that I "paint" over using a mouse or stylus and painting software. I then vary the transparency of the painted and photographic layers to create a unique hybrid image featuring the best of both media.
