Photo Artista Oil
Jixi Pix’s world class development team presents an award winning portraiture & fine art app that turns a photo “alla prima” (at once) into an oil painting masterpiece with no work on your part.
Photo Artista is a painting tool that takes no time to master in order to create your own original work of art. Our efficient method in a simple interface requires a few easy steps: Start with a photo, choose a paint style, and then apply … let the application do the work. All that is required of you is the appreciation – we will take care of the rest.
This app applies the most sophisticated brush strokes, lighting and canvas texture to your images with the option to remove texturing when printing to canvas. Photo Artista is a professional artistic media that graphic artists, photographers, and hobbyists rely on for high quality end results.
