Strange Beauty 5

Youth

A new volume containing some of the most striking images yet with the use of a number of different abstraction techniques. More evidence of the astonishing versatility of abstract essentialism, a particular feature of this volume is that it includes several series of manipulations of individual images or groups of images to explore the varied and random effects that can be produced. The beauty of youth is captured here as never before.
