The artistic duo behind 'If Drawings Were Photographs' completed an impressive project with a simple idea behind it. One of the artists (Tom Edwards) would draw an sketch and the other artist (Rob Matthew) created a photograph that imitated the sketch.
'If Drawings Were Photographs' is the resulting book from the project, and some of the results are impressive. Check out the gallery for a taste and check out the links if you want to see more.
