Snap Art 2 is a Photoshop plug-in that turns your photography into beautiful works of art with a single click. Detailed simulation of individual brush strokes and canvas texture gives results that are indistinguishable from handmade art. The finished piece begs to be hung in a gallery, especially when printed on canvas.

Version 2 of Snap Art can achieve higher levels of photorealism than version 1. Most filters now have a photorealism slider, so results are only abstract when you want them to be. This helps keep portraits clear and detailed.

Focus regions have been added that let you control where detail is preserved. These oval regions are easily reshaped and moved by dragging them in the preview window. Focus regions are most often used on facial features in portraits.

All of Snap Art’s presets have been improved and many more added. New in version 2, settings are grouped into categories to help you quickly find the style you are after. There are over 700 presets in Snap Art 2 and users can make even more.

Snap Art 2 takes advantage of multi-processors and multi-core CPU’s, making it significantly faster than version 1 on most computers. Now Snap Art 2 can work on images of any size, making it suitable for extremely large prints.
