As I was rifling through some digital photography that my fiance's sister had taken on a photoshoot in San Francisco early last year, I had a few ideas pop in my head. Something between an almost-portrait/painting and actual photography, just to blur the lines enough. I was thinking of splicing together a few ideas of mine from those old Mexican Saint portraits I had always seen at folks houses or lining a heavily sprawled display wall at the local Swap Meet on Saturday's here in town. So far it's coming out quite nicely. More work to come...
