New style of portraiture.

This article talks about Sebastien Del Grosso, the French artist who combines his two passions, the photography and drawing, to create a new-style of portraiture that is out of the ordinary.

He uses an special effect to create brush strokes making his photographs look like a painting. He thinks that this way, he introduce an imaginative element to the photo, making his artwork more pleasant to the eye.

He had created two different series of his work:

• The first, “The sketch of life”, illustrates Sebastien's daily life, from an humorous point of view.
• The second one, “Friend sketch” contains some portraits of his photography team, where he shows the process of some of his pictures.

I've chosen this piece of news because I love photography and this original type of portraits, attract my attention. I thing hat it's really beautiful, and I love the idea. It's really out of the ordinary.
