Each piece has a distinct vintage appeal, incorporating pastel-soaked tones and doe-eyed youngsters reminiscent of stylised Renaissance art and Old Master paintings. Both haunting and compelling, Loretta gingerly portrays a sense of dark fantasy with ghostly subjects that hover curiously on the line between the real and the imagined.

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?
From The Omen’s devilish Damien to those chilling twins in The Shining, there’s always been an unsettling connection between children and the genre of horror within popular culture. This is something that artsit-turned-photgrapher Loretta Lux captures brilliantly in her surreal portraits of young children. Loretta’s work is carefully created through a combination of different techniques including still life painting and digital manipulation, sometimes taking up to three months to complete.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
