Even though I bet those of us photogs who've used brushes in their lives might concur. Most painters have been using photos or photographic techniques over the years - from the Dutch masters to the super/hyper-realists. Hockney also did both. Most photogs have been influenced by painters, is that a problem? I don't know a good photog who can disclaim this - HCB was so strict on composition, inherited from, guess what ... For me it all boils down to: As a viewer, do I like it, or not? whatever the gear. In the meantime, Van Gogh has now been killed by teenagers. A sign of the times?
