Advantages of making painting by using a computer freeware.
1.
Any
kind of pictures can be inserted and combined
Open Office software consists of many kids of clip
arts and other pictures, which can be inserted at any place in any orientation
and size. This can be altered at any time. For each picture, the parameters
like brightness, contrast and so on can be controlled. Most of the pictures
2. Many small images can be easily copy pasted number of
times to get a pattern.
Such
patterns are very easy to create and even the sizes can be altered for a row of
pots so that a perspective effect is easily seen.
3. Complete colour control is possible
Observe
each pot. The colours are different because, it is varied. First one is the
original.
4. No question of erasing problems on canvas, as we can
correct it any number of times
As it is
computer, any number of times we can alter any image, which cannot be done easily
in painting. In some cases, in regular painting, we may have to discard the
canvas and start painting if the mistake is big or irreparable.
5. Varying Shades and transparency are extremely simple
Observe the
two pictures. The left one makes us to feel that the pen is behind the dust
bin, but in the right side picture, Transparency of the dust bin is increased,
so that it is giving a feeling that the pen is inside the dust bin. Such an
effect is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to get in regular painting.
6. Size and orientation of any object can be altered.
The above
pictures will illustrate the ease of use of pictures in different sizes and
orientations. Observer the hand bag of the person in the third picture. It is flipped horizontally. Similarly the
shelf.
7. Pictures can be grouped or ungrouped easily
When
grouped, all the pictures in the group move together. It is a very good
advantage.
8. 3D drawings are very simple to generate.

9. Perspective view and its degree can be controlled
very easily.

10.
Any stylish text can be typed along
with painting.

11.
Shade gradation controlling is
possible

volumes)
12.
Almost
unlimited colors are available
Shades
available in normal colour system in the computer are 256 colours but with
combinations and RGB ratio variations, we can get almost unlimited colours.
13.
Images
may or may not be printed and hence almost no cost
Most of the
computer paintings can be stored as soft copy only. Only when someone asks for
it, we can print it. So, virtually no cost.
14.
Final
best image may be printed on ANY size of paper
If we start
painting on a canvas of a4 size and then decide to increase the size of the
painting, we cannot alter it. We can only start in a new big canvas. But in
computer painting, we can take print on any size and any number of copies!
15.
Laser
printing will make it automatically water proof
In regular
painting, unless we use oil colours, painting will not be water proof. It has
to be protected by doing lamination. But in computer painting, we can take a
laser print, which is water proof.
16.
Real
photos can be embedded or combined.
Instead of
using clip arts, we can use our own photo embedded in painting. We can also use a combination of the two.

17.
No question of paint allergy or bad smell.
Since
computer requires no real paint, no question of painting allergy of dirty spill
over of paint.
18.
No wastage of paint due to drying
Paint will
normally get dry when exposed to air for longer duration and hence wasted. But
computer painting cannot be like that.
I have explained all the methods of painting using computer. It is with detailed expalnations with complete illustrations. Hve a look at my book at Amazon.
