Painting - A Low Rez Photo Of One Of My Orig Oil Paintings Scanned And Reworked To A High Rez Digi Painting
Description
I was going through some old files and came across a photo of an illustration I did with oil paints about 30 years ago. This was part of an album cover design project that I did for a Jewish Cantor who wanted the artwork to be in the style of Marc Chagall. I don't know if I was that succesful in doing that but the client was thrilled with the result. He bought the original art and the total package deal. In the 1970's I owned a recording studio and offered recording artists a great total package which included the recording session, mixing , pressings, design and printing of the album jackets. The photo I took back then of the original artwork, before I sold it was extremely low resolution ( we didn't know anything about mega pixels back then, so I recreated this concept by first scanning the photo and repainting it completely by hand, digitally. More or less a restoration project from an old low rez photo.

Bob, this is really different. I've went back & reworked projects I had done long ago. It's interesting because our artwork will always hold its significance no matter how long ago it was created. Great Job!
Bob Salo replied:
Thank you so much Toni...I didn't know if I should put this up at first but I'm glad I did :))

Well done. Amazing you could do the high res. upgrade.
Bob Salo replied:
Thanks Mary.....I set the canvas to 300 dpi and re-painted every part of it digitally as close to the original as possible from a photo I took about 30 years ago...Pretty happy with the way it turned out.

Nice work Bob. I like the whole "Fiddler On the Roof" feeling.
Bob Salo replied:
Hi Jeff...yes, that was kind of the idea behind it. The client I sold this to along with the album cover design wanted something on the style of Marc Chagall's work....I'm no Marc Chagall but the client liked the end result ...thanks Jeff
