Castle in the clouds by ElenaDudina


1. Can you give us a little insight as to what goes on in your mind when you create your pieces?

Where do your ideas stem from?


Normally I have an idea in my head. I look for stocks that I think fits better with it and combine them. It is a slow work. Very sacrificed. Other times is a photo stock that impressed me, especially a model. I try to create an appropiate environment and I work to make the whole pretty and credible . It´s simpler.

2. Which of your pieces are you most fond of and can you tell us a little about them?





Tender hands

My work with more favs and comments.

I have always been interested in portraits. That moment in which nothing happened.
I prefer to work with non perfect images, non perfect faces.
A challenge.






Colibries


This is one of those stocks that you can not refuse.
Again the movement is out. I love hummingbirds.
This work served as cover on a prominent book in Spain.

The Mermaid

Mermaids, a technical challenge.

I like to fantasize and photoshop is the perfect tool to give life to fairies, dragons, mermaids.

Mariposas


A frozen moment, the movement is outside.

Forest nymph

Mystery, innocence, nature...

It was time to open the angle of my camera and my subjects.
People lose prominence.
We have a duty to our planet.

The last quiet place


A sort of Shangri-La.
Wanted the towers of the background seem to be there long before people.

Deep set


A single person often seems a little thing. So better teamwork. I have to think about that.
I had long tried to make a sunken ship, without result.
I am very patient and persistent and sometimes that gets results.

Polar Express


A train, snow, cliffs... I had to do something.
Perspective is one of my current challenges.

3. What advice do you have for the beginning Photo manipulation artists?

Study, practice a lot, work hard, never discourage, try to be yourself. Always use the highest quality material.
