What are Photographic Painted Portraits?
Humans have been creating portraits of each other for centuries. Photographic portraits have been an option in more recent human history, but the recent trend of creating painted portraits from photographs has combined the two artforms. In fact, photographers of all types are experimenting with transforming their digital images into frameworks of art that wouldn’t look out of place on display in a museum.
A painted portrait from Natalie Roberson Photography will provide you with a beautiful piece of art to hang on the walls of your home. This is a great way to preserve the likenesses of your loved ones, just as people have done for centuries. When you commission a painted portrait from Natalie Roberson Photography, you get the best of both worlds – a professionally posed photograph transformed into a unique work of art to be treasured for a lifetime!
