AKVIS Software, Inc. announces the release of AKVIS ArtWork, a special effect tool that applies different painting techniques to common digital pictures.
Available in Mac and PC versions stand-alone or as a plug-in for Adobe Photoshop, ArtWork makes digital photos them look as if they were real oil paintings, helping users create a piece of art out of any picture.
ArtWork allows creating an oil portrait, a landscape painting or a still life picture in a fully automatic or assisted mode in a matter of minutes.
AKVIS ArtWork is an ideal solution for creative expression. Combining advanced technologies with an artistic approach, the new AKVIS creative suite is a perfect virtual artist for Mac and PC.
The transformation of a picture into a painting happens before your one's eyes - one can follow the birth of a work of art in real time! The virtual artist lays brush strokes naturally using the original photo as a reference.
ArtWork creates realistic paintings out of pictures taken with any kind of digital cameras, including digital SLRs and compacts.
Unlike many other products that just adds twisted geometric lines to make pictures look like more or less like paintings, ArtWork applies sophisticated image transformation algorithms to produce realistic results coming very close to hand-painted works.
Tweaking the options unleashes access to a variety of oil painting styles.
