Time Traveller Avatars

The Time Traveller Avatar series is a selfie series that couldn’t have been made today, as the Avatar graphics are based on oil paintings of different parts of the world from the first decades of the 19th century to the 1970s. These original oil paintings were painted by JRR for various galleries.
This nostalgic imagery is a popular theme at a time when retro is enjoying a renaissance. Authentic depictions, vehicles, buildings, clothing, all painted in the style of the era. It is an interesting fusion of Avatar digital art techniques and modern imagery, where analogue painting meets analogue painting and a completely different retro imagery.
