At first glance, Sax Arba’s Winters Coming and Gone is delightfully faded and whimsical. Then I looked closely and the frozen mist cleared to reveal remarkable depth, color and realistic detail. Sax Arba’s mixed media creation is a perfect combination of its parts. A gorgeous model posed in front of her winter backdrop and was camouflaged into the background. The human collage was then photographed, digitally altered, printed and repainted to create the final illusion. Sax Arba demonstrates how to use computers and photography as an artistic tool without diminishing the beauty only possible through the soft touch of the human hand.
