The ability to take a photograph and transform it into realistic pieces of art with a brush or even a pencil requires a tremendous amount of skill. These 25 photorealistic art paintings are jaw-dropping because you can’t distinguish whether it’s a painting or it’s reality.
Ten realism artists have impressed me even more with their ability to use artistic tools to create unbelievable works of art. Here are 10 paintings or drawings that look like photographs.
