Triplanar Convergence

This was a fun photo experiment that veered wildly off track. I had intended to simply merge 3 shots into one image and simply stack them up side-by-side. Since I used a flash, I ended up with a variation in exposures that meant stitching the portraits together in one image became far more challenging, so I opted for an monochrome HDR approach with some oil paint and jigsaw filters thrown in for good measure. I then reworked most of the individual squares from the jigsaw backdrop manually with liquify in PS to create a natural, more organic feel. Some details of the hair and eyebrows in the second and third portraits were also altered manually with the liquify brush.
