Create paintings online

While searching around the internet, I bumped into Psykopaint, a website that lets you upload and paint over your photos. It's designed for people with "no skills" and who are "too lazy to study for several years." Ha! Choose from dozens of effects, plus brushes that let you paint in the style of famous masters. If you like what you've made, have it printed on a canvas. Here's a test where I painted on the right half of a photo I uploaded. If you find yourself bored silly someday, give it a try.

Congratulations! I'm sure you'll want to get that printed on canvas so you can hang it on your wall.

I just posted about making a "model" and referenced your site and, specifically, this post. http://duckndam.blogspot.com/2011/03/making-of-model.html

It was a very timely post. BTW, I love your blog. Thanks for being so generous with your knowledge and content.

Hoooray!!! You described me with art - not wanting to study for years. And so, the procrastinating payed off! LOL. I can see myself now painting some Christmas gifts! :) Thanks for the tip!
