JP Paul

The artist of this incredible photo is called JP Paul. Paul had a series titled “Compromised”. This series were amazing artworks of 3 woman, which were dealing with potential terminal illnesses. 2 of the 3 survived and gained a new view at life. Before reading the Biography of Paul, I thought that the image I chose was deep. I felt like I connected with this image personally, since times can get overwhelming and life can definitively get tiresome.

Paul expanded this series to other issues such as, modern society’s pressures of perfection and stereotypes. That seems to be a great addition to an already amazing series. Paul used a combination of manipulated photography, Photoshop, and computer based drawings to create this image. He intentionally wanted to layer the image with different effects. The digital part is a huge part of this piece, the computer being the biggest part of manipulating the image, but it also brings his visions to light.
