AKVIS OilPaint is a valuable and indispensable tool to transform photos into beautiful oil paintings.
This example shows how to apply the oil effect to create an image of greater expressiveness from a frame extracted from an old movie.
This is a Fulani woman listening a lecture on midwifery organized by the Italian non-profit social organization ONLUS (Organizzazione Non Lucrativa di Utilità Sociale) in Africa in 2007.
- Step 1. Extract the frame from the movie and open it in an image editor: AliveColors, Photoshop, PSE, or other compatible program. Adjust the brightness and contrast.
Original Image - Step 2. Call the AKVIS OilPaint plugin from the effects in your image editor (in Photoshop: Filter -> AKVIS -> OilPaint, in AliveColors: Effects -> AKVIS -> OilPaint). Alternatively, you can use AKVIS OilPaint as a standalone program.
Configure the settings using the preview area which you can move with the mouse. It is fun to experiment with the parameters!
AKVIS OilPaint - Step 3. Not bad at all! It would be even better if we add a "painting on canvas" effect. Turn on the check-box on the Canvas tab.
Canvas - Step 4. Apply the result and save the file.
