This May Look Like an Ink Drawing, But It’s Actually a Photograph

The late Don Hong-Oa was born in China and lived in Vietnam and the United States. He practiced a particular form of photography that realistically mimicked traditional Chinese ink drawings. It’s like the inverse of photorealisic painting.

This is lovely and it looks Chinese. I spent 3 months in China in 2010. I live in Juneau, Alaska and enjoy the many ravens and eagles we have.

Good call, Alaska Woman. thanks for identifying that aa “looking Chinese”. It helps get rid of that nagging “What style is that?” feeling.
