Photographer Freddy Fabris had always wanted to pay homage to the Renaissance masters with his photos in some way, but he wasn’t sure how until he stumbled upon an auto-mechanic shop in the Midwest. In his own words: “Translating painting into portrait photography was a challenge I looked forward to. I wanted to respect the look and feel of the original oil paintings, but needed to come up with a conceptual photo idea that would create a new layer to the original”. This led to a brilliant series of funny portraits with auto mechanics that you can see here.
