Is it Life or Just a Play? Draw "In"s by themanwhofellasleep

By themanwhofellasleep.

In his own words:
"The pictures are simple enough: the people in the photos have been digitally removed and replaced with drawings. Yeah, I know: anyone can trace a drawing. But so what? I am doing it, and you're not ... Maybe the pictures illustrate the idea that we all want to remove ourselves from life, and replace ourselves with fictional, self-created versions of ourselves."

Here is how he used Photoshop to do it.

Of course, all of this makes me sing "Take on Me" by a-ha in my head.
