Artography History
Once
photography was but a camera, a flash, and film. This is no longer true. Today,
thanks to the new, exciting Artography innovations, photography is Art - a revolutionary,
important art form with the look, depth, and textures of fine oil or watercolors,
elevating the photographer to ARTIST. Now all can bring out the art in themselves
and be able to share art with friends as gifts. Artographs have the look, depth
and texture of oil paintings, yet they also have the realism and perspectives
that only a camera can give. The Artographs are composed with a variety of
art materials, including oil paints, water colors, enamels, lacquers, gold leaf,
and metallic or color antique. However, many of them are produced on the artist’s
canvas and are set in custom finished, velvet-lined artist frames. The role
of the photographer is changing today with all of the new innovations. It is
most important that we are able to use all of the artist’s techniques. Let
the photographer stand knowing the best of art. With the artographic process,
one is given the option to change what the photographer captures, and to take
out or add, in order to create perfect color composition or subject matter.
Artography was introduced in 1967 and exhibited by the California Museum of
Science and Industry. It was also exhibited throughout the United States and
Europe. In 1969, we introduced a photographic art service where we gave photographers
the opportunity to purchase our service. Thousands of artographs were produced
for the professional photographer to see for their clients. Now this process
is available to anyone who takes pictures.
