Photo manipulation is to change photos to create an illusion, and dream. And is an answer to the artist creativity.

A few examples of images I made of art manipulation.

Photo manipulation involves transforming or altering a photograph using various methods and techniques to achieve desired results.

There are a number of software applications you can use available for digital image manipulation, ranging from professional applications to very basic imaging software for casual users.

Digital artists use Photoshop and other photo editing tools available for download… creating everything from surreal, abstract and funny to strange and otherworldly animals.

How do you digitally manipulate a photo?

  • I mostly begin a work adding a new layer.
  • Add Light and shadow.
  • Dodge and burn.
  • Sometimes I use realistic textures.
  • Use different brushes.
  • Put it in perspective.
