From our lifestyle to the way we work, we are witnessing a sea change in every walk of life. Likewise, art, which is a reflection of our lives, is also evolving with the use of new techniques and styles.
The latest on the block is Photo-Genius Art, which is a new way of creating a painting. In Photo-Genius Art, an artist begins with an abstract photograph of his own, and then after getting it transferred onto canvas, he works on it with brush strokes in oil paint to achieve an original painting.
The technique holds great potential for discovering unlimited creative opportunities for art students and new artists, as they are more open to exploring new ideas and efforts. If you wish to know more about this style of painting and want to witness artworks created using this new concept, head to artist Ashok Roy's exhibition.
