Michael Elins






Michael Elins is a very talented photographer and computer illustrator. Elins went to my high school and then went on to art school where he studied illustration. As the computer age came, Elins began to mix his drawing skills with technology. He mixed photos with drawings, and sliced drawn heads onto real people's bodies. Now he is mostly into photography. Elins' work can be seen everywhere-on Rolling Stone covers, Newsweek covers, TIMES covers, album covers, movie posters, Vanity Fair pages, and SO much more. He has satirized political figures, made fun of celebrities, done fashion magazine spreads, ad campaigns, and so much more. I got to see Elins talk about his work and background at Focus on the Arts this year. If you check out his websites below, you will recognize so many of his photos and see his incredibly wide-ranging and talented work!
