PHOTOREALISM. TALENT AND SERIOUS FOCUS.

PHOTOREALISME: TALENT ET CONCENTRATION

Pedro Campos

I am absolutely in awe of the talent demonstrated by these pieces. I can't begin to understand the amount of patience needed for this. I don't need to even mention what the hand must do to translate what the eye sees with that much realism. In fact, I am not 100% certain I can believe these are actual paintings. I mean, the plastic bag around the apple? the glass bowl?

The ultimate trompe-l'oeil.

Not an iota of doubt.

In the mean time I'll just make believe and keep doodling an eye with a ball point pen...

au revoir.
