Mike Savad | Digital painter

"I was born in Texas, in an army base. I've always had a camera in my hand, mostly to keep me busy. It wasn't until about 20 years ago or so, when I got my first digital camera that I could experiment and learn how to do photography".

"Photo realistic is what people think of first. There are many themes, flowers, porches, and local Suburban Scenes, some city, some urban. I also have many Job inspired images that cover a quite a range. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell 1894-1978🎨 and paintings from the time of the Renaissance🎨".

"My style is not really photography and not really a painting.I create images that resemble paintings.

I don't like plain photos.

I found that over time every photographers work will look the same. Its hard to set yourself apart from everyone else if your work looks like everyone else's".

"I specialize in HDR. HDR stands for: High Dynamic Range, it has the ability to sustain both highlights and shadow at the same time.

It allows me to see out a window on a sunny day, see the grass, while at the same time, see the pie on the table, and the cat under the table. To achieve this, you need multiple frames and you have to edit it into one image".
