Description
Acrylic on A2 paper, hyperrealismIt is very fascinating how the buildings reflected of the hood appear so 'real', accentuated by the surroundings in the shade and the direct sunlight hitting them. The car itself becomes secondary and the buildings something more prominent than the surroundings, thought at the same time many features found in the surroundings hold a quality that recognizes reality as we see it, such as the way you see through the front window or the nuances of the white matt car.
The painting becomes an exploration or interpretation of reality versus hyperreality.
Something special happens, when the photograph is transmitted to the painting, that somehow manages to help the above mentioned qualities appear more clearly. A regular photograph holds a certain visual dimension reserved for photos.

I really like the composition and the color scheme, plus this proves that some of the things people may find boring can be really interesting.
Nice work.

I like this one very much, it has the best of both worlds. Nice to see you taking original direction in your photorealism, something sorely lacking in the genre.
Appealing approach with the softened look on paper... very nice, well done!

I don't know about painting much. But it seems like a hard work.. You are amazing

quite astonishing, as always. I like the way the cars are dark and desaturated, as if standing in a shadow, and only the reflection is bright and sunny..
just curious, do you take your own photoes for these paintings? and also, how do you manage to achieve such smooth textures?

Thank you!
Yes I take photos that I use as references, but I don't 'copy' them, I often make my own contrasts and pick out which details to focus on more than others... Not sure what you mean about the textures..?

I ment the paint surface, it looks so smooth, no brushstrokes visible..
I never said you "copied" them. i truly admire what you do!

I didn't think you did, I was just saying
anyway, I think that the brush strokes are quite visible here, at least compared to Parking, but I always paint many layers on top of eachother, not only to hide the strokes and really fill everything with color, but also because I never get the right tone of color instantly, so I have to repaint until it's right...

Wow not bad. I wish I could do the same but it's just too time-consuming.

remember that painting is still painting, whether you spent little time on many pieces or you spend all of your painting time on one piece
