Perfect for adding an artistic flair to your photographs and digital paintings, our themed collections and painted backgrounds help you create artistic masterpieces in a variety of styles and themes.
The Desert Dreams Painted Background Collection offers you 10 painted background scenes based on my Desert Dreams Collection of paintings in my Wide Open Spaces series. Indulge your senses and embark on a journey with your favorite subjects through these desert scenes, where golden horizons beckon and the desert whispers its ancient tales. Let the radiant warmth and captivating tranquility of these paintings transport your art to a realm of endless possibilities and profound serenity. Mask your subject's photographic background away to blend right in with these warm scenic backgrounds, creating new works of art featuring your favorite subject(s).
Though these were designed to be used with animals and birds, they can also be used people and other subjects. You can also use these backgrounds as the beginning for your digital paintings, whether hand painted or painted in various digital software.
Use these backgrounds "as is" to add a painterly feel to your photographs by placing them on a layer under your subject and masking away the subject's original background. Using your transform tool in your software, you can stretch them and position them exactly where you need them for your art. These also make wonderful beginning backgrounds for your digital paintings!

I am inspired by the illumination, colors, tones and drama of paintings by the old masters. I am inspired by nature and wildlife. I'm inspired by food, the weather, sounds and scents. I'm inspired by music, from rock to classical and everything in between. I'm inspired by helping others. And I'm inspired by seeing what others create with these textures and backgrounds. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you'll find some resources you love!
