Converted Photo Impressionist Paintings

This Company Converts Photos into Impressionist Paintings

— April 10, 2014 — Art & Design
'Company of Painters' is a company that can turn photographs into Impressionist works of art, in the form of oil on canvas paintings. The initiative was borne out of a desire to help people with artistic vision but lacking technical skills the ability to create real oil paintings.

Company of Painters finds artists with the requisite technical skills in creating Impressionist paintings and connects them with customers to help them turn their favorite photographs into classy-looking paintings. The initiative helps bring out the Van Gogh in everyone, without requiring them to endure years of study and practice (or sacrificing a ear).

The company focuses on the Impressionist style of paintings because this style is thought to work best when trying to convert a photograph into a painting. However, interpretative, abstract, pointillist and photo-realistic paintings are also offered.
Trend Themes
1. Photo-to-art Conversions - The trend of converting photos into paintings is increasing, providing opportunities to develop new software or services that offer unique conversion styles or options.
2. Artistic Accessibility - The trend of making art more accessible to people without technical skills creates opportunities to develop art products or services that cater to this segment of the market.
3. Customized Artwork - The trend of making customized artwork more affordable and accessible opens opportunities to develop business models that make it easier and cheaper for people to commission personalized artwork.
Industry Implications
1. Artificial Intelligence - AI has the potential to revolutionize the photo-to-painting conversion process with more accurate, efficient and creative algorithms.
2. E-commerce - E-commerce platforms can leverage the trend of customized artwork to offer personalized products and services that tap into the growing demand for unique and meaningful gifts or home decor.
3. Education - Education providers can capitalize on the trend of artistic accessibility to offer courses or tools that teach people the basics of creating art and help them unleash their creative potential.
