As someone comments, it's very clever/skillful but it's not creative or indeed art. Photo realism has been around years, as kids would call it 'copying'. You either use tracing paper or project the image somehow and trace around it. IMHO if you art going to interpret the subject you might as well just take a photo.Last edited by Bagpuss; 16 March 2012, 10:12.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

I'd like to see you recreate some of that with a pencil and some izal medicated toilet paper.Originally posted by Bagpuss View Post
Very clever, certainly niche. Would that I could.Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.Comment

So the Mona Lisa is just copying then? After all, it's not creative, he just painted what he saw.Originally posted by Bagpuss View Post

Well he's not using one pencil and it's looks like some technical drawing pens have also been used. I'm not that good but I could copy a photo quite well and I know several people who could do equally as well as this guy. Art colleges up and down Britain have guys that can do this, I know one that used to produce them of F1 racing of the same quality.Originally posted by Scrag Meister View Post
There isn't much point arguing with you are you obviously have fallen into the trap of thinking photo realism is art, and that the more real something is the better it is.Originally posted by d000hg View Post
The Mona Lisa was not created from somebody elses work/ copied from another medium.Last edited by Bagpuss; 16 March 2012, 10:23.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

Technically there has been little point in figurative art at all since the camera was invented. Still great talent to have tho.bloggoth

"the trap" - how up yourself can you get? It's good to know CUK has the grand high master of deciding what is[n't] art amongst it's membership, to complement the experts on economics & climate science.Originally posted by Bagpuss View Post
