Loretta Lux's photography
The new issue of the still-excellent Bust magazine has an interview with Loretta Lux, a German artist living in Ireland whose surreal photographs of children are so spookily sweet that they're hypnotizing. According to the Bust article (not archived online), Lux won't reveal her specific Photoshop techniques except to say that "the images are compositions of photos superimposed over painted backgrounds, then finished off with digital alterations." Her online gallery is just stunning. When I have a child, I'd love to commission Lux to photograph him or her every year. LinkShare this post
