These are by an artist and graphic designer by the name of Lotta Nieminen. She is from Finland and is known for her illustrations. These ones seem very photographic to me.

I was inspired by the images Tim just put up.

I appreciate this photographer. His name is Neil Krug and the photographs that I am giving examples of are from collaboration series with a model named Joni Harbeck.

They made two volumes of a book titled “Pulp Art Book” together.
