Would you paint what you shoot? | |
A very interesting question.
Yes.
Some of my photographs are designed/composed to later be paintings.
Available time is the shortcoming. I don't have enough time to paint now. Other priorities take all my time now.
On the other hand, because I enjoy photography so much, I see things that look so good as a photograph, I see no reason to paint them. 
Also, my paintings tend to use materials that do not translate well to the type of photographs I like to make. I like to paint with wax (encaustic) and while some people do make figurative and "portraits" in encaustic, I tend to favor more abstract wax paintings. Visit my website if you want to see. My paintings on display look completely different from my photos. This pleases me with variety.
The bugs made me chuckle. No, I would not eat those.
