Artist Xia Xiaowan - 3D paintings on glass.
Xia Xiaowan has been preoccupied for years with the problem of representing three dimensions on a flat surface. For him, the Western solution—with lines of perspective converging on a vanishing point—is powerful but inadequate. After much experimenting, he decided to approach the question from the opposite direction and build flat images into a three-dimensional one. He divides a picture into layers, draws each section in coloured pencil on a sheet of tinted glass, then stacks the sheets one in front of the other.
Amazing photoset, and Happy Birthday to my all-time inspiration!
Damn, that is the thing, right there.
Wonder Woman.
