Surreal Portraits of Children that mix digital manipulation with painting techniques. They can take up to a year to make . Weird but wonderful, subtle digital alteration.
"The children's heads have been slightly enlarged, their skin porcelainized, their eyes given a glasslike vividness. Their outfits are sometimes color coordinated with the surrounding sky or a rose garden. Or they are seen against walls whose unusual tactility may include visible brushstrokes or, in the case of ''Study of a Boy 2,'' handdrawn images. The poses and compositions draw from the history of painting -- Ghirlandaio, Bronzino, Goya and Balthus, for example." (NY Times Review)
