Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: A book for photography and fine art lovers alike. A stunning
compilation of nudes in which photographer, Rankin, blurs the line
between photography and painting. Inspired by Gerhard Richter
amongst other influences, Rankin photographed the worlds top
models naked against sumptuous materials. He then pushes the
boundaries of modern retouching and shows what artistic effect it
can have by turning his photographs into apparent oil paintings.
A departure from his usual style, this book may surprise those
familiar with Rankin's work, as the photographer breaks into an area
previously unexplored by him or indeed many others. 'Painting Pretty
Pictures' flies in the face of the media debate over photographic
retouching, and shows the positive effect it can have
