Amazing Paintings (16 pics)

These are some amazingly realistic paintings by artist Joe Simpson. They are so lifelike that you’ll have to look twice to make sure they aren’t real people. Have a look and see if they don’t look like real people to you.

He should have tried playing with his characters, in an artistic way. What's the point of this "lifelike" art, if it resembles photography so much.

absolutely. five-year old children paint much better than this because five-year old children have unlimited creativity and non-bias.

any hack with time on his hands can make a perfect imitation. i know... i've done it myself... and i consider it wasted time.

if this artist wants to show his chums in an interesting way then i suggest he study someone like chuck close...

good point, good point. i guess what really bothers me is the elevated platform that the public typically places hyperrealism on. while some of the greatest abstract artists starve. an old story...
