The Painted Bride

I’m always looking for ways to make my work more interesting and appealing.  Since we create a lot of portraits on canvas, a painted look is something we offer.  No two digitally painted portraits ever look the same and there are many techniques I use to achieve these specialized looks.

Here are two versions of a beautiful bride that I photographed and then painted.  I’d love feedback as to which you like better:

Painted Bride Version1

Painted Bride Version 2

When displayed on canvas in a big frame, a portrait like this becomes an heirloom that anyone would be proud to pass down from one generation to the next.

I love the first bride overall, but the second bride has some interesting texture that makes it look old. I like it too.

Thanks, I'm always trying something different so there's pretty much never two painted photos I do that look too similar.

I really don’t know which I like better. They’re both different and unique in their own way.

I couldn't decide which I liked better; however, my husband voted for the 1st one.

In the second photo, not having the texture on her face looks off to me.

I do love them both but the first looks a little unfinished to me.
