Tutorial: AKVIS Coloriage

A Present for the Mother's day

 

We got this example from Robert Bates from Texas.

He decided to make a present to his mum for the Mother's Day - to colorize the B&W photo of his grandmother. He chose a black and white photo of his grandmother taken in early 40s in LeTulle Park, just outside of Bay City, near the Colorado River.

To colorize the photo he did the following steps:

  • Step 1. Open the black and white photo in Jasc Paint Shop Pro 7.
  • Step 2. Call the AKVIS Coloriage plug-in by selecting the command Effects - Plugins - AKVIS - Coloriage.
  • Step 3. Draw an outline within every object with the color you've chosen for it.
