Comment: Yesterday, I received a PowerPoint presentation attached to an
email from a friend that supposedly contain paintings that look like real
photographs. The artist is supposed to be Anna Kostenko from the Ukraine.
I am a computer artist myself and was pretty sure the paintings were in
fact photos.
Here is a link a version of the slideshow as well as a message from "Anna
Kostenko The Painter" saying the paintings were not hers, but were actual
photos taken by "Anna Kostenko The Photographer".

Was hoping you might be able to get to the bottom of this. I noticed that
"Anna Kostenko The Painter" appears to have a Twitter account as well.

Hi everyone, my name is Anna Kostenko, and I am a PAINTER, i have nothing to do with the photo-pictures on that presentation. Whoever did that slide-show, didnt do any favers to me, or to the other Anna Kostenko, the Photografer.... Yes there are two Anna Kostenko’s. One is a painter, another is a photografer. Is it so hard to imagine?....... And, i think we both deserve an appology for that nonsens slide-show... the biografy and the picture are mine, but for my works that anonimus-author would have to search a bit harder..... And for the other Anna, its not particulary fare to see HER works with MY biografy and my photo-portret..... so, come on, please make some order to that mess, whoever has created that.....
yours, Anna Kostenko, the Painter.
