Pencil vs camera
The idea of mixing drawing with photography came to him in 2010.[6] Heine says it was the result of a long graphic exploration and a logic consequences of his artistic evolution.[7] "Pencil vs Camera" mixes drawing and photography[8] imagination and reality,[9] through illusion and surrealism.[10] In this project, Heine's usually focuses on architecture, portraits and animals.[11] Among many others, the main themes approached in "Pencil Vs Camera" are love and friendship. Heine says: "I just make art for people. I want them to dream and forget their daily troubles. I used to write poems many years ago, I want to convey a poetic meaning into my pictures, each new creation should tell a story and generate an intense emotion, like a poem, like a melody".[12] This series had a large impact on the graphic design community.[13] Heine says the initial idea of this "Pencil Vs Camera" concept came by coincidence while he was writing a letter.[14] Some of his "Pencil vs Camera" creations have also been related to optical illusions.[15]
