....but just an image from a series of 'faux-polaroids' (a concept invented
by my wife).
This project is about David Hockney's Paper Pools made in 1978 near NY.
very very wip.

You made that in POV-Ray? That's really good. Even without the frame, it's
really good. The polaroid-ness makes it cooler.

You really did a good job making things look like they've been rained on.

That gets a WOW!

There is a lot to like but I think it is the muted colors that really 
sets it up for me.

I am aware of course that Hockney did pools, but the Paper Pools hadn't 
really gotten my attention.  I see that his process involved taking 
polaroid shots of pools.

Is your wife's concept just for cg or does it have a broader application?

Amazing!! I would like to see the image before being post-processed as well.
This is fantastic for POV or is it just the frame that is post-processed? I
can't believe you call this WIP looks finished to me. The lighting is very
realistic is it HDRI?

my Hockney project is based on polaroid shots he took before starting his
work, but I've digressed as always. For example, Hockney never photograph
the pool in the rain. And also, I replace his friend by a crocodile because
I found interesting and funny to play with the double meaning of 'caustics'
word.
The Paper Pools was an interesting work because Hockney used a special
technique for the paintings. In fact, the paintings
are made of pressed paper pulp impregnated with coulour, sorry, color... (I
don't know exactly how you say that in english, in french it is : 'papier
teinte dans la masse'). So, there is something ironic with the water idea.


> Is your wife's concept just for cg or does it have a broader application?
One day, my wife had had the opportunity to show her work in a collective
polaroid art exhibition in UK, but she didn't have polaroid camera (SX70)
at hand. Sure, it was more easy to go to the shop around the corner and buy
one, but she thought that should be more exciting to made a kind of
Polaroid simulacrum. She printed herself a series of old photographs and
then mounted them in pseudo polaroid frames she made. Yes, it was pretty
conceptualist...

I think 'Faux-Polaroids' are just an artistic concept which have certainly
something to do with falsification and copy tradition in history of art.
