I, too, discovered this after reading about the Anna Kostenko mixup, on Snopes actually. These are lovely. I've never seen facial expressions captured this well in unconventional depictions of countenances.

Also found this after reading the Snopes account. BEAUTIFUL work. Far more inspiring to me than the "photorealisim" claimed in the fake slideshow.

I have who ever made the hoax up to thank for finding this incredible artist, I also think that individual needs to apologize to both Annas. The paintings are so beautiful and strong. The colors and the people, wow! "Faces of Humanity" , I can't think of a better title for these wonderful works.

maybe it was not a made up hoax but a true mistake... i hope so! let's give the person the benefit of the doubt. :) at least now the world knows about BOTH amazing Annas, even though it was through a case of mistaken identity! now both will have their amazing work (painting and photos) appreciated by a huge global audience. :)

I guess I don't appreciate modern art, but I found the paintings grotesque, and the photorealism much more pleasant to view.

how bizarre, that you would choose to use the term "grotesque" to describe them. What about them did you find repulsively ugly?

As art critic for the past 30 years .... and as an incessant "Snoper" ... this wonderful film is a gift to me in this New Year. I had been sent those "photopaintings" by various people over the past year or so. My response to all was simply ..." If they are genuine ... then the artist's technical skills ar e incredible. But there is no soul or heart in them. She might as well grab a camera and shoot pretty scenes." I stand vindicated. These paintings have soul. They are brilliant!

Super work. Too bad about the Snopes screw-up but for that I wouldn't have seen these paintings.

I agree with everyone else. Her paintings are much better than the pretend photorealistic ones she was alleged to have painted. Why people are impressed with art that looks like another medium (the viral email that Snopes debunked), I will never understand. It's kitsch.

Yes, I too came to this video through snopes. It is good that snopes is contributing so much in eradicating hoax mails. We can be saved a lot of embarrassments if we verify snopes.
Anyway, good artwork.
