The artist executes her compositions using a combination of
photography, painting and digital manipulation, favoring simple
backgrounds over the more elaborate backdrops that characterized her
earlier work. Trained as a painter at the Munich Academy and influenced
by Old Masters such as Goya, Bronzino, Runge, and Velasquez, Ms. Lux
works the entire surface of the photographic image in the computer over
the course of many weeks. Props and vintage costumes are carefully
selected, as are her subjects.
