    I like the postcard of the Ocean City boardwalk. Does anyone know of a type of projector light you can use to copy a picture and make a painting?

    Do you want to take a photograph and make it look like a painting or do you want to make an actual painting?

    I did this with Picasa but it just looks like a colorized postcard-

    The only thing I can think to do would be make a copy of the photograph using slide/transparency film then project it.

    Thanks. That's a good idea. I might try that.

    Another possibility would be to take a photo of the postcard and have a print made on canvas. Then I'd paint over that.

    This is the postcard I'm considering:
