The Art Drag Album photo series is a clever twist on the typical portrait theme in which people replace their own heads with the artwork of albums. In this case, however, the photographer has decided to use paintings despite the title of the series. Dressing up beneath them to continue the scene, the Art Drag Album series is creative and playful.
Not to mention that the Art Drag Album photo series will surely inspire more than a few alternative costumes for the Halloween festivities. The only catch is that the paintings or albums will have to be strategically cut out to allow for the wearer to see through them. This series predominantly pulls from the work of painters J.H Lynch and Vladimir Tretchikoff.
