Hand-Painted Photographs
Wendi's hand-coloring technique developed from her background in oil painting. Delicate layers of oil paint have been painstakingly applied to each archival photograph to achieve rich and subtle hues.

This technique differs from traditional hand-tinting,
which involves applying color and then removing it to leave a hint or a 'tint' of color. Here the artist builds up layers of color to achieve depth and subtlety, using photo oils, oil sticks and oil paint in tubes, a variety of fine brushes and often her fingers.

Most of these hand-painted photographs date from
the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s. As each version is hand-painted, every photograph is unique.

Though these hand-painted photographs are limited to editions of ten prints - 16x20, 20x24 and 30x40, only a few of the images have more than four versions completed. A few of Wendi's images were also printed in 11x14 and 40x60. Most versions differ in use of colors. There are also variations to the prints themselves, which are printed on archival fiber paper.

Some of these vintage painted photographs
are now available for sale. Prices for original hand-painted photographs start at $1500.
Limited edition, signed archival pigment prints are available of a selection of the hand-painted images.
