Honestly WTF

Pakayla Biehn

Posted by on

We’re completely blown away by Pakayla Biehn‘s paintings derived from double exposure photography. The San Francisco-based artist collaborates with several photographers, produces double exposure photographs as inspiration, and then paints the images using oil on canvas in the most realistic, detailed, and ethereal way. Honestly impressive and incredibly beautiful . . .

    I’ve been very into double exposure photography recently, so these are a treat! Thanks for sharing!

    Wow…these are magical. I love that loungey last one, and the first one of the hair. I haven’t seen anything quite like these, so thanks for enlightening me!

    These beautiful paintings make me think of a french poem by Charles Beaudelaire, “Un hémisphère dans une chevelure”. They are so poetic.

    I would have never guess that these were paintings and not photographs! How lovely they are!

    Wow these are absolutely stunning! I can’t imagine how long these must have taken, oil painting can be tedious yet she makes it look so fluid and delicately layered.
