Tantalize Me

Ahh, my last digital imaging project for the year. This one is probably my favorite by far. 

I feel like this one speaks to me and many others on a number of levels. Countless people are unsatisfied with their body images because of how they eat. We'd all like to maintain a healthy diet because it not only makes our physical bodies fit and healthy; it makes us emotionally healthy, too. How many of us have felt good about ourselves after eating something that we find nutritious and delicious at the same time, but find it impossible to resist foods that taste good but really aren't? But really, there are multiple ways to interpret this.

Some parts of the picture were made from real photos; others were digitally painted in Photoshop CS6. I never. Want. To paint. Kale. Ever. Again.

But seriously, I had a blast making this.
