New York-based artist Shae DeTar captured this series of serene images that emphasize the beauty of the female body. Each image showcases a nude woman, or women placed in a non-traditional, yet elegant landscape.
The serene images range from pink mountainous backdrops to cool blue pools of water. All of the photographs capture the beauty of women surrounded by mother nature. The photographs were created by shooting portraits, and then adding digital layers of paint to emphasize the landscape.
By emphasizing the most interesting aspects of the images, it accentuates the overall tone. The entire series combines organic beauty with digitally enhanced fantasy elements to create truly surreal portraits. One important characteristic of these images is that the artist was able to capture the elegance and beauty of nudity. This task has been difficult to achieve since historical paintings have become an art of the past.
