Portrait Study

This might be a two for one deal, photography and digital art coming together. One artist is working on creating a photo catalog: "Humanæ  is a chromatic inventory, a project that reflects on the colors beyond the borders of our codes by referencing the PANTONE® color scheme. The project development is based on a series of portraits whose background is dyed with the exact Pantone® tone extracted from a sample of 11x11 pixels of the portrayed´s face. The project’s objective is to record and catalog all possible human skin tones." And using the internet to be the discussion panel of such a project. And another artist is using this photographs for art study on, recreating these people in through digital brush stroke and color palettes. How cool is that!
