Artist of The Week - Mario Testino








This photo really appeals to me because of the unity of all the elements based on color and proportions and texture. The background and the girl's clothing as well as skin color all go together very well. Her position in the image is perfect and creates an nice focal point, her posture matches the image very well and her size to the size of the background looks great.


This picture really appeals to me because of the woman's posture and intense figure and stare, it creates a serious yet sophisticated mood and the poodle makes everything adorable. The coloring and lighting is great, her clothes match her as well.
