I have always been a fan of the Victorian and Edwardian style of portraits and nudes. Apart from the techniques and the almost exclusive use of daylight illumination they seem to have a cheekiness and risqué feeling .

For the last few months I’ve been tinkering with painting nudes in Painter Essentials 5. The auto paint setting is fairly easy to use when photo painting nudes but it wasn’t producing the results I wanted.

There then followed a lot of painting, layer blending, erasing and quite a lot of cursing to achieve a better result.

Still playing with digital painting nudes using Painter Essentials 5 and getting a little nearer the results I want. I’m using the auto painter in oil painting and pastel modes and them tweaking the results with various brushes set to clone from the original.
