Old Red Building, Digital Painting of a Photograph, $400

The Power of Color in Digital Painting

One of the greatest strengths of Digital Painting is the ability to control and enhance color in ways that traditional photo printing simply cannot. This piece is a perfect example.

Like all my Digital Paintings, this started as a sharp, detailed photograph. But what you see now is the result of my creative process—using my digital painting tools to transform the original image into something entirely new.

If you were to see this building on Race Street in Philadelphia in person, you likely wouldn’t recognize it. That’s because I don’t just replicate reality—I reimagine it. With every painting, I push the boundaries of my digital “paintbox” to create something unique and striking.

I invite you to follow my journey—whether by signing up for my blog updates or visiting my Gallery and Studio. Let’s talk about art, creativity, and the stories behind the images.

The photo used to make this Digital Painting is a digital file.  it can now be made to ANY size that you desire.
