These images might look like double exposure photographs, but theyre actually works rendered in oil paint.

One painting depicts a dancer as she bends her body towards a chair and kicks her leg upwards.

Blanxer paints her pose twice in differing opacities, creating a ghost-like effect.

Blanxers other works are rendered in his signature, multilayered style.

But rather than repeating the subject, he paints city scenes within their contours.

When hes not painting on canvas, Blanxer creates large-scale murals all over the world.
