Psykopaint Can Bring Out The Artist In You

Psykopaint is a web-based virtual painting tool that can turn any photograph into a work of art. It’s not a filter. It’s a fast and easy to use tool that delivers endless possibilities. Whether you prefer the more traditional painting or something experimental or even something abstract, Psykopaint has something for you. |
| There are free style brushes as well as presets. All of the brushes can be adjusted, finetuned, and tweaked for an assortment of effects. From subtle to extreme you can adjust the brush size, stroke, shadow, mix, and blending. This isn’t just for your photographs. You can upload jpg and png files (up to 1000px x 1000px and it will scale any image to fit within those constraints) to paint. For those first time skinner who have spent hours on a wall in Photoshop that they just aren’t happy with, Psykopaint can bring new life to it. Psykopaint also has the ability to save what you paint in layers (png format) so you can reassemble them in Photoshop and tweak them further. You could potentially apply different styles of painting to each layer for something truly unique. Here is an example of what Psykopaint can do. The image on the left is something I just ..ahem..found on the web somewhere. The image on the right is after a trip through psykopaint. (click on either for full view) |
