Digital Fine Art and Portraiture
Digital Fine Art
Digital Painting is a new and emerging medium which uses computer modeled brushes to emulate artistic media such as watercolor, pastels, oil and acrylic paints. Similar to traditional painting, digital painting uses brush strokes hand applied by means of a digital paintbrush stylus, such as the one shown below. After the painting is complete, the images are transferred to fine art canvas or paper using a large format gicleé fine art printer.

Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
Overall 11 years. I've been working 4 years here in the San Luis Obispo area.
What is your primary product or service?
There are three main services offered by Flying Griffin Designs, Digital Fine Art, Portraiture and Voiceover.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
I have been involved in multimedia since 1997. I began working in the corporate communications department of a silicon valley company filming and editing training and promotional videos. In many cases, I recorded the voiceover for the project. When I left the company in 2000, I continued video and voiceover work as a freelancer. At that point I also started adding graphic design to my skill set.
When my son was born I started focusing more on the graphic design/portrait side of my work as video became too time intensive.
In 2007 we moved to the central coast and I started to focus more exclusively on photography. This area is full of very talented photographers so I wanted to find something to make my work different. That's where digital painting came in. I trained at Light Photographic Workshops with Fay Sirkis. I also began to explore the possibilities of Green Screen Photography.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
Green Screen Portraiture: Capture your child’s personality to showcase their charm and imagination in a truly unique way. Do your child’s adventures take them to the bottom of the ocean or to a faraway planet? Maybe your Princess lives in a magical castle or your little Knight slays dangerous dragons in a forest?
We use green screen photography to set your child’s portrait anywhere their imagination takes them. A whimsical keepsake that every family will treasure.

Who owns your company or runs daily operations?

What are your hours of operation?
