Although art is recognized to emphasize its detachment from reality, hyperrealism practically erases this facet. The paintings and sculptures created by hyperrealists artists are absolutely indistinguishable from the photograph of the source, so looking at such works it is difficult to imagine that they were made by ordinary pencils or ballpoint pens.
The dimensions of hyper-realistic images, as a rule, from 10 to 20 exceed the dimensions of the original photographic reference source, with this extremely high resolution of color, accuracy and detail. Many paintings are drawn using an airbrush, using acrylic paints, oils or a combination of both.
We already had an article about one of the artists of the hyperrealists Paul Lung, who paints portraits and cats, but in this article we tried to collect about 40 of the most outstanding works of hyperrealists, as well as the process of creating these works.
