2. Pretty advanced for a 12 year old.

3. Are you sure it's a 12 year old kid?
Sorry, but I'm skeptical of much that is posted on the internetz.

I'm zev, a 12 year old chap trying to effectively learn how to use photoshop and his camera which is way too good for him. he also writes about himself in third person.

all of his work is under a this Creative Commons license, so if you want to do something with it, please ask. chances are, he will say yes to whatever it is, but does prefer that you ask permission first.

he also does not like when people give him awards without making any substantive comment. if he gets those, he deletes them.

my sister is nellie. she's 16 and she writes my titles and captions and lots of other things that she may or may not show you if you ask. she also likes writing in third person and pretending that she is writing as me.

you can see some of their former endeavors here. (and you can bring it up here if you want to make zev and nellie weep tears of nostalgia.)


If you go to the other site that will make zev feel nostalgic you'll find a series of photos and a 'blog' link that mimics the behavior of a child but is hardly child like.

If I'm wrong, that's cool. These are some amazing composites regardless of how old/young the actual person is.

4. There's a bit of skepticism when I remarked that it is
advanced for a 12 year old. We do have some visual art prodigies, he could be one. Still the images are very good.

5. I have no doubt that a 12 year old can do this kind of work
Just not sure if this was done by one. But, who cares, I'm just impressed with the imagination and execution of these images. 12 years old or 90 years old. It's just a number.

6. That's how I feel. It's kind of how I saw the book "The Teachings of Don Juan."
I didn't believe a word of it, but was greatly entertained.
