Paintograph is a term that is a hybridization of the words " painting" and " photograph" coined by award-winning poet, photographer and paintography artist Debra A.F. Seiz [1] to describe her technique of applying acrylic paint to the emulsion of a photographic print. Term may also apply to any other type of paint media applied to a photographic print, including oil-based paints.
Paint may be used to achieve realistic, surrealist or abstract art effects.
Paint may be applied thinly or thickly, to add dimension to the photograph, creating the effect of the photographic subject appearing to project beyond its original plane.
