8/28/2012 4:31:42 PM

8/28/2012 4:33:03 PM

The shadows look fucked up he could do a better job with shadows

8/28/2012 4:33:40 PM

great.

his website annoys me. Takes like 10 seconds to move around his page because he has like 1/4 pictures pop up as it loads. ridiculous

8/28/2012 4:54:22 PM

hes good, but who the fuck wants a painting of some dirty dishes or cans of soup

8/28/2012 5:45:22 PM

that's chopped, I can tell

8/28/2012 5:52:32 PM

It's impressive but I don't see the artistic merit.

8/28/2012 6:47:02 PM

Nice work, bad subjects

8/28/2012 8:31:15 PM

i love art as much as anybody, and this is VERY impressive...

but photorealism bores the hell out of me.

And Jasper Johns was on the Simpsons!

I dunno if they are just paintings:

"He applies layers of oil paint and varnish in the traditional manor to a totally modern image, creating a wholly contemporary, unique kind of image"

still pretty great though

8/29/2012 12:12:22 AM

dirty dishes and room-temp condiments: the contemporary post-realism for the lazy hipster

8/29/2012 12:21:43 AM

doesn't beat soup can portraits...

8/29/2012 8:05:50 AM

I prefer the oposite:

Turning reality into a painting then photographing it

8/29/2012 9:23:38 AM
