Wynand Du Plessis

I am a professional photographer and digital photo artist. My "photo art" creations are my own original photographs that are digitally enhanced, restyled, combined and/or altered in a computer using various software & digital painting techniques, often involving many steps and layers.

Creating artworks from my bird photos are of special interest to me at the moment. I have developed an unique style in my bird art that aims to capture the beauty of pure bird photography in combination with digital painting techniques whereby the bird photos are in harmony, and part of an abstracted/impressionistic & graphic background. My favorite traditional painting simulation effects are impasto style & palette knife applications.

Other themes that are of interest to me are reflections, rock art, motion blurs, distortions, digital collages, patterns & textures, autumn colours, neon art, city windows and water colour simulations.

Also look at my own website for many more examples of my photo art:
