Symbiosis in Progress

Many people have asked me what kind of process/software I use to make my portraits, and if they are pictures, illustrations or digital designs.

All my photos are created using a real picture of the artist and images of their work fused together in Photoshop.

Here you can see some of the original pieces made by the artists, pictures of me taking pictures, :) a screenshot of the work in progress in Photoshop and the final photocomposition as a graphic explanation of the process.

Even when I use a digital design that could be easily sent by email, I always take a picture of it with the same camera in the same place with the same light so the final composition works fine without having to make many adjustments. This is my little secret trick. : )
