Artist Spotlight: Dutch photographer Ruud van Empel

"The children and people in Dutch photographer Ruud van Empel's work are the result of blending the features of four or five professional models in Photoshop. The settings and backdrops to the photos are also constructed in Photoshop from photos of foliage and ponds around the Netherlands."
