Undefeated Steak Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) Someone tweeted a painting they did and it took a long time to check it wasn't just a photo. It takes some talent to paint like this. Â Â Edited July 8, 2019 by Undefeated Steak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted July 8, 2019 Awards Moderator Share Posted July 8, 2019 There's a whole realist movement going on, led by the Japanese. Google Yasutomo Oka. Here's one to get you started.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted July 8, 2019 Moderators Share Posted July 8, 2019 Whilst technically impressive, stuff like that leaves me cold. I find myself here sounding like my art teachers whom I hated, when I all I cared about was technique but really what's the point in paintings like this? To be fair though, I might feel very different if I experienced a painting like this in real life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted July 8, 2019 Awards Moderator Share Posted July 8, 2019 I feel similarly, it's emotionally cold but I I'm still staggered by the technical skill. I would like to see one up close to really see the detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted July 8, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted July 8, 2019 If there's no original photo it's incredible, if it's literally a recreation of a photo it's just like advanced colouring to me. My idea of hell in art is a photorealistic painting of Walter white or something, you see that shit all the time. I could never do that in a million years though, it definitely requires skill. It's just not my bag, I'm illustrator but pretty much the opposite of that kind of stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members seph Posted July 9, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted July 9, 2019 The 'fun' with art is in the interpretation. I don't think there's any bickering to be had with a photorealistic painting other than what filters may be used with a digital equivalent. It's also far more difficult to have the subject (if a person) have input akin to "me, but I'm a bit thinner and have a younger, tighter face" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel similarly about guitar solos; extremely impressive but I don't really 'feel' it unless I'm watching the guitarist play it in person. They don't really do anything for me when it's just the audio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
