There was also a service bureau in LA that at one point had a 2 step procedure for generating oil painting prints on canvas from digital files. they used a 3M laser toner transfer process to image a canvas with custom oil paint like powdered toner that was then subjected to second heat and pressure fusing pass to create a oil painting on canvas.
I have spent a lot of time researching to no avail, do you have any links/more info?
ps..it seems strange to make an action painting, then have it copied...sort of defeats the object.
Another approach would be to put together a process like a serigraph. You could use Studio Artist to build the images for the different screens used in the serigraph and then paint in the individual screen images by using the screen as a mask for real paint applied on canvas. Again, i know there's someone here on Oahu who works with serigraphs and i think he has assistants who do the actual fill in paint work using the serigraph screens even through the finished painting is sold with his signature as his painting.
I'll do some searches for the 2 step oil paint toner transfer process i was referring to. With the longevity of todays modern pigment ink jet prints on archival canvas or paper it's really less of an issue i think then it was 10 years ago.
There is one technology in printing that can offer some hope to those wanting to lay down color in layers as the program does. UV ink printing which has the capability to print WHITE ink as well as colors. Now there would be some additional special requirements to match the printer to SA, such as print registration, and a special print driver.
UV printers are usually available in large to super large format and ungodly expensive $100-250k.
As it happens I have been working with a manufacturer to design a special purpose smaller footprint UV ink printer.
If anyone has about $42k to spend on a printer it would be possible to have a machine that can print multiple passes on an image pretty much as SA does.
I know that the price sounds high and that for the most part we artists can not imagine spending that sum on a output device. However, I offer it on the chance that someone or group might be interested.
