Ani Trone Photography

I’ve been playing around with Adobe Lightroom’s development and Photoshop’s painting features and am really getting a knack for this new style that is developing…here is one from today; worked on it off and on throughout the day and was going to add horses, chipmunks, etc. to it and decided that it looked just fine the way I was without anything else.

It is available as a poster sized print if you are interested…click here to get a copy!

I haven’t done anything artistic in a long time so after watching some tutorials that Scott Kelby recently did I am feeling inspired.

Messed around with the development settings in Lightroom then smudge painted in Photoshop. I really like the grungy effect and saturated colors on these.

I bought a few painting with Photoshop/Corel Dvds to help spark my creative side especially when the weather doesn’t permit outdoor photography. I started with Susi Lawson’s “The Fine Art of Photoshop” a few nights back and thought today would be a good day to try out what I’ve been learning.

Now I’m by no ways yet up to her caliber but I liked how my “Lil Upstart” turned out…

The source and inspiration for this was taken from a photograph of a foal just a few days old in the stall with his mama.

PADP – A quick smudge painting I did of Rainy the other day. He looks so peaceful soaking up the sun in his nice green pasture.

Ok, so this time I took my time and really applied myself…still need to perfect brush strokes, etc…but I liked how this turned out soo much that I am looking for a way to get it printed on canvas.

BTW, Smaller versions don’t show the brush stroke details as much as I would like…

Made this for a very good friend of mine for her new baby announcement. Congrats on a beautiful baby boy.
