Hello everyone, my name is Patrick. I am not a coder nor a good person to advertise. That is why I am offering you to use my talent to make some money from it by creating an online site from it.

What do I do?

I basically am a photoshop guru who has been doing this for 6 years. I like anything digital art but realize if the average everyday person wants their pictures made into a beautiful digital painting/illustration. It costs alot! I found a way to make it very cheap. I found a process to transform pictures into digital artowork that resemble paintings/illustrations that look completely hand done. It takes me roughly 15-20 minutes.

Here is an example:

I use a series of programs and then touch it up with my hand. I only want 5 dollars for each work. You can upsell and keep the profit. Advertising, Creation, and Investing will be your responsibility.

Physical Process:

You will handle the business end. All I want to essentially do is receive photos from you which the customer gave you, transform it into this painting effect, then receive 5 dollars for each work. Paypal fees will be covered by you.

There is money to be made! I have gotten away with selling these for up to 100, but I insist working on volume and selling them at 10-15 each. What the customer does with it is their option. Since it is treated like a digital photo, if they wanted... they can have them printed on photo paper, mugs, t-shirts... but we won't tamper with that, just suggest what they can go do by themselves with it as an insentive to buy from us.

Just like southwest airlines dominating the market, we just offer the lowest price, for the minimum amount of service yet good dependable quality, and we will dominate the market.

I haven't seen anyone do this effect as well as I have.

hmm I do not mean to affend you or anything if I am wrong, but this seems like a total scam. If that painting you are advertising is 100 digital with all brushes and you want to seel them that cheap even for volume then you are crazy.

I say this because, if you are really this talented then you want to spend 15-40 hours for 1-3 paintings and you still want to sell them at bulk? Say you get an order of about 20, that would be a lowsy turn around. Or maybe you are just some kind of phenominal god who is quick as the speed of light. But I have been involved with the art communities way to long to notice something a little odd when I come across it. I think the only way you are going to recieve interest is if you post a very solid portfolio and customer testimonial too.

Im sorry but this sounds like a knock off.

Please prove me wrong. If you are selling these type of paintings for bulk, then you have got to be using some kind of photo program besides photoshop to generate the paintings. Work like that is not meant to be done in bulk.

I love to be proved wrong though...

Hey Lentin, lol, don't worry I'm not offended because you misread :) They aren't paintings.

I found a way to make it very cheap. I found a process to transform pictures into digital artowork that resemble paintings/illustrations that look completely hand done. It takes me roughly 15-20 minutes.

As stated, I transform photos to works that resemble paintings. It takes 15 minutes because I have to run it through multiple programs, then simply brush up on the pixelated areas with my wacom.

I hope that clears it up :).

You are correct when you mentioned

If you are selling these type of paintings for bulk, then you have got to be using some kind of photo program besides photoshop to generate the paintings.

I do use photoshop and several other programs which are not well known, in combination with layers, and layer styles, this effect comes up :).

I, on the other hand, do not want to target those that want hand done paintings because those type of customers are not my market nor can I cater to them.

I hope that makes better sense. If you have any other questions feel free to ask any, I am definitely not claiming anything I am not :).

Cheers Sir!
