Architectural Fantasy by Antonio Joli

Original Painting: a post-war paradisaical gathering space composed of serenity and peace.


Manipulation 1: attempt to enhance the sacred quality of the space by altering contrast and eliminate two swimming women


Manipulation 2: elimination of all human beings in the image for an abandoned atmosphere



Manipulation 3: adding more nude women in the pool to create a more active public atmosphere



Manipulation 4: changing the state of water into stones to see physical changes



Manipulation 5: enhancing the sky and town background to shift focus point



Manipulation 6: color and contrast adjustments for a dramatic effect



Manipulation 7: depressing feelings achieved from blue color tone



Manipulation 8: change the sign to gold to add a new focus for the image and since the position of the sign is quite dominate, I continued to use it for the next manipulation



Manipulation 9: Neon club sign that says 'open' questions the content of the enclosed space. I will continue to add more 'club' elements to the image.



Manipulation 10: make the painting more paradisaical by adding some wings and holy glows to people and also soft foggy light that illuminates the space.

  1. I'm very excited about your work so far! Considering the fact that the space is so large, I would recommend you start including large objects or even buildings inside the space. Or play with repeating the space in the background making it and infinite space. Or perhaps cutting the space after the third column and introducing a new space beyond. Or Cutting out the walls in the archways on the right and extending the space. The Photoshop work is flawless!
