Belgian artist Philippe Ceulemans is redefining the intersection of traditional and digital art. With a backbone in oil painting, Philippe has embarked on an innovative artistic journey, where he digitally manipulates photographs of his own oil paintings. This unique approach allows him to infuse the classic textures and depth of oil paintings with the limitless possibilities of digital editing.

​

Philippe' works are a testament to his skill in both mediums. Each piece starts as a traditional oil painting, rich in color and detail, capturing the essence of his artistic vision. Once the painting is complete, he photographs it, transitioning the work from canvas to digital. This is where his creativity takes a new turn. Using digital tools, Ceulemans edits these photographs, adding layers, tweaking colors, and altering perspectives, transforming the original oil painting into something entirely new and unexpected.

​

The result of this process is a series of unique digital artworks, each telling its own story. What makes these works even more special is their exclusivity. Philippe chooses to print each digital creation only once, in a large format, ensuring that each piece remains a singular masterpiece. This approach not only highlights the value of each work but also challenges the often-replicable nature of digital art.

​

Philippe' work blurs the lines between the traditional art world and the ever-evolving realm of digital creation. His approach is a refreshing reminder of the endless possibilities that arise when artists dare to explore and combine different mediums. With each piece, he not only captures the beauty of his original oil paintings but also adds a new, digital dimension to them, offering viewers an entirely unique visual experience.
