Photorealism is a lot more interesting when it's not just a copy from a photograph, but an imagined/surreal subject/scene that is constructed to look real.
I’m feeling quite discouraged after hearing the comment about photorealism in all honesty. I love to do cultural paintings because it makes me feel close to my culture, I do change the subjects in some way when I paint them but I feel like saying it requires the least skill is massively discouraging to artists. Not everyone likes fantasy or Impressionism, and just because someone includes more brush strokes doesn’t make them more skilled than someone that paints more realistically. It’s just a different style of art. One might be more creative but certainly not more or less skilled in painting
The first painting was mine!! Thank you so much for critiquing it, Alpay!! The paints were Gamblin but the canvas was just a cheap Arteza, so you’re absolutely right about the materials. This was my second oil painting and I am going to buy a bunch of proper quality canvases per your suggestion. Thank you!!!! ❤
Photorealism is the lowest discipline? U kidding me? Getting photorealism perfected is one of the moste difficult styles! Anyone can slather on some acryl splotches and call it art. But drawing something so perfectly that the eye does note perceive it as drawing anymore is breathtaking. I am shocked at what some so called artists produce and dare to call themselfs artists.
From an art historian's perspective: the skill and quality of mimesis - imitating the forms present in the real world - was throughout the centuries, since the times of ancient Greek and Roman civilization, the highest praised one in a work of art; the subject of paragone, artistic competition. While there always were artists not pursuing it as their main goal, only the invention of photography has changed the perspective, making realism less of a priority, opening doors to different ways of perception (...Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, and so forth). While one can argue that creativity, diversity, innovation in forming an artwork may be more interesting and valuable nowadays, the talent and skill behind the sheer ability of mimetic depiction of things is indisputable.
Photorealism at the bottom of all disciplines? I never heard that one before, It took me years to develop my ability to paint photorealism, and many great artists I know can't even come close to achieving it. I think you need to be more "realistic" when calling it "easy" fellah. Taking Jabs at photorealism is surely a "hot take" I feel like you know this and are looking for attention in all honestly.
Realism isn't easy and it takes a lot of patience, hard work and very fine detail. Few people can master it like Steve Hanks and Mary Whyte. And Miriam Escofet who recently painted the Queen before she passed away. It takes a lot of more time to be precise and detailed.
photorealistic art is considered to be the hardest by most, i am not a huge fan of it nor can i do it but i admire those who can pull it off...why would you say it is the easiest...
Aah, the myth of "photorealism is the easiest style of painting" is a strong one, a lot of art teacher seems to think that way. Truth is each discipline as his difficulties, it's really ignorance to think it's easy, plain and simple.
I respect Alpays take on photo realism but I heavily disagree. I think artist who are able to do photo realism master something that is quite extraordinary. To look at something that’s real and capture not only itself but it’s characteristics and essence is something that is extremely impressive and takes a lot of hard work. Standing back and looking at it and seeing that your two hands created something that could be mistaken for a photo is just wow. It’s a lot of time and dedication and learning because most people who master this or want to master it don’t start off like this. It’s a lot of trial and error and growing and setbacks. All you have is the photo but the rest is up to you. Even for like colored pencil people you have to be very careful with pressure, movement, dark to light, layering, blending, Side angles etc. Its definitely not that easy. With it also needs a lot of patience. I think photorealism is truly one of the most impressive forms of art along with many more other styles. You captured realness. You’ve captured life and your two hands did that!!!!
I'm just gonna preface this by explaining that I'm a graduate from a fine arts university, however I do not paint in a photorealistic style myself. I think I get what you were trying to say; that photorealism is not a creatively challenging art style because its often copying a photograph. Please correct me if I made the wrong conclusion. To a certain extent I agree with you; if you're simply copying a photograph, pixel by pixel, then it essentially requires less creative thought than a paint by numbers kit. However, with that being said, photorealism is so much more than that, and I think its a bit unfair to dismiss it as such. In fact, one could argue that you yourself draw in a photorealist style. Of course I don't think you consider yourself a photorealistic artist, but it does raise a very valid question: where does stylization end and photorealism begin? Most people would say that photorealism is any painting that could reasonably convince a viewer that it was a photograph, even for but a moment.
I started into art really pushing myself to achieve hyper photorealism, but then as time went on I started yearning to bring more paint strokes into my work and started going away from it. There is something about the movement created by brush strokes that makes a work feel more “alive” that hyper photorealism and photographs just don’t do.
I like photorealism - for me one of the main goals of fine art is to depict as close to reality as possible. It's interesting that a lot of people say "Anyone can do this", but in most cases the very people who say it can't draw at all (with or without reference).
Maybe photorealism is like Sprint(running). (I do love both of them a lot.)
Wow, that is a hot take!😁I would call accomplishing photorealism more a technical skill than a creative one but if you can use your creativity to setup the image and then capture it, I believe it is very effective depending on the subject. I, like another user stated, prefer photorealism applied to surreal or imaginary objects. To me, that makes it more magical. I can take a picture of cherries, apply a filter, and print it if I want that kind of image. Aaaaallll that being said, I like the cherries, the artist did a good job and having done it will build them toward more.
This is what we need, genuine art critiques
Now we know why alpay always uses the paint roller as a finishing touch. Up until that point he's just painting "the easiest and least complex style" 😂
Hey thats me at
"One thing I can tell you though, it is definitely the easiest [photorealism]"
