Here you can see Alexa Meade painting onto a person. This makes the person look as if they are apart of a painting and it de-realises them. she adds shaddow to the figure and the paint creates a textured surface.

Here she has realy emphasised the shaddow on her neck and she possitiones the people infront of a painted background wich realy brings the characters into the painting. The only thing that looks out of place is the hair and the eyes.

Alexa Meade (born Alexandra S. Meade; born on 3 September 1986) is an American artist. While Meade has worked in a variety of sculptural media, she is known for her installations, which feature models situated in tableau scenes painted to look like two-dimensional paintings.^[1] She is currently represented by Irvine Contemporary in Washington, DC.Meade applies acrylic paint to the surfaces of people, objects, and walls in a broad brushstroke that mimics the appearance of brushwork in a painting in a technique that she innovated.
