Deco Delight | photography enhanced with photoshop | 18x30

I have been expressing my joy of art with paint, shapes and colors since I was very young. I started as a painter, evolved into a photographer, and eventually began hand-painting on my Cibachrome prints over 35 years ago. Before Photoshop I found a way to expressa new magical reality with the vivid, saturated and unrealistic color. I painted into each photographic print.
