Features of the Artsy Effects

Whatever your artistic style, we have the perfect Artsy effects to help you transform photos to art and express your creativity.

OIL PAINTING

Offline, this traditional form of art can take up to two weeks to dry completely. But who has time for that? Luckily with the BeFunky photo editor, you can achieve the same effect within seconds.

WATERCOLOR

No paper, brushes or paints needed. When you use this BeFunky photo to art effect, you can achieve perfect pigmentation and opacity in all of your pictures with one simple step.

UNDERPAINTING

It's easy to get down with this extra funky tool. It creates a layering effect on your photos, distributing the light and dark colors and creating a brilliant image that you will want to show off.

GOUACHE

Enhance texture, color and style in your photographs with this unique filter. Based on layering opaque colors, it will add great depth to your pictures, while bringing your projects to new heights.

IMPRESSIONIST

This technique may be from the 19th century, but it is guaranteed to breathe new life into your next project. Using short brushstrokes and vibrant colors, it creates intense images that focus on expressions of light.

POINTILLISM

This photo to painting tool will help to connect the dots on your next project. By using a spotting technique, it transforms the colors in your picture, creating a striking image with a full range of tones and textures.
