A well done double exposure is pretty rare and incredible on its own. Now take that piece of art and turn it into a painting. That’s just what artist Pakayla Biehn did in her Double Exposures series: turned a handful of double exposures by a series of photographers, and painted them. Wait a second, a painting, you say? Yuppers! These are all paintings! Incredible, right? The close attention to detail is almost unbelieable. You’d almost never know these weren’t photographs, that’s how incredibly realistic Pakayla’s work is. This level of precision and photo-realism kind of boggles my mind a little bit. In the best possible way. Because … just WOW.

Salut, mes amis! Remember me? Things have been quiet around here over the last 2 months. Thanks to a Christmas miracle (a.k.a. the wonders of Apple’s customer service), my computer’s life has been saved and I’m back in business! Horray! Confetti! I’ve sure missed the blogosphere and I’m so glad to be back. So stay tuned because I’ll be bringin’ the sparkley (plus some other nifty things) back around these parts again pronto! Thanks for all the support during my time away. Regular posting shall resume again within the next day… so stay tuned! xo.
