The Sketch of a Life series is a visually striking project that blends together the world of photography with the world of illustrations. Although it might bring to mind the 1988 film 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit', instead of boasting both real life and animated characters, the people are a mixture of the two. This creates an even more surreal appeal.
Created by Sébastien Del Grosso, an artist and photographer hailing from France, the Sketch of a Life series is inspired by the many stages of his life. He writes, "Since my childhood, drawing has always been a passion, but when I discovered photography, I thought that the combination of these two passions could afford to give free rein to my imagination." An impressive collection of work, sometimes it is his sketchbook that comes to life.
