Renaissance Look

Rüdiger Schestag created a German series of videos explaining how to create an antique painted look from your photos. Kate Breuer recorded the Photoshop part in English.

In this tutorial she uses the photograph Rüdiger Schestag used in the German version and follows his steps, explaining which steps are necessary to make your photos look like they were on old canvas. She explains how to get rid of flying hair and skin flaws and how to optimize the mood of the photograph. In addition, she explains how to add lights, shadows and structure. At the end of those steps the result is a wonderful Renaissance Portrait.
