Lotus Beauty is a portrait of a self scouted young woman in a corridor of a hotel in Spain.She was then edited later into a beauty without ai integration in photoshop.It was through this work that I learned certain skills in photo editing long before AI.One can only do this if one likes it.Most photo-graphers and designers had no patience for this kind of work.I seen the potential for digital painting in this and thats what I did.Ofcourse I was influenced by fashion and beauty and photoshop had the tool for it.I began this without any specific goal because it was a kind of taboo to manipulate photography.
