People either loved or hated John's art
Dr. John Stevenson is an artist, photographer and Photoshop pioneer. We talk to him about digital painting in Photoshop and and the idea behind Trulyscene Artbox.
You have a lot of special images but what’s the next level? How about a tool that turns your pictures into unique works of art? Imagine surprising your friends with an oversize print, or delighting your family with digital paintings of old family images. This can be the perfect gift for any occasion and you don't even need to be Photoshop pro. Trulyscene Artbox is an intuitive Plugin that seamlessly integrates into the Photoshop ecosystem for easy access and use. Decide with a few clicks which direction and style you want for your artwork, and the Trulyscene Artbox will do the rest for you automatically. You will love the distinct brushstrokes and transformative colors this one of a kind Plugin delivers every time.
With the Trulyscene Artbox Photoshop Plugin you have complete creativite control. From the beginning, Adobe Photoshop has included tools for digital painting. However, in-depth Photoshop knowledge and exhausting amounts of manual brushing were necessary to produce fun artwork. With the Trulyscene Artbox Photoshop Plugin you take control without wasting time. How does the Plugin work? You first pre-select the output size and add a frame of any width and color. Next, you set a focus point for the image with a few clicks. From there, a total of 8 custom Brushes are provided - 4 in a subtle category and 4 with bolder brush characteristics. These 4 Brushes in 2 variants will produce a painted output in any of 6 different pictorial styles. Ultimately the Plugin itself can deliver 48 different outputs from one original input. Each time you use the Plugin it creates individual brushstrokes providing truly infinite opportunities for unique pieces of art. In addition, the outputs are left open to a wide range of editing and re-configuring options which you can use to refine the results.
