Tableaux Nouveaux
6 Pins
Tableaux Nouveaux / My Tableaux Nouveaux series renders photo portrait subjects as the characters in famous paintings. The backgrounds and props are assembled from dozens, even hundreds, of original and found digital photographs, which are then painstakingly woven together in photoshop to arrive at the finished composition. So the great masterworks to which these photos pay homage are faithfully recreated from the odds and ends of contemporary digital photography. The painting is dead, long live the painting.

The Pin-Up Chess Calendar!
13 Pins
The Pin-Up Chess Calendar! / The 2012 Pin-Up Chess Calendar was a project I did to explore the image of women in chess, and to ask questions about the portrayal of physical versus intellectual beauty. Each of the models is studying a classic position from chess history, and each month of the calendar features important dates in the history of women's chess, birthdays of great women players, and also the year's schedule of major women's chess events around the world.
