lol how long you think it took to do those...

 

[Cyco]

Amazing indeed.

 

[CrimsonChaos]

Do you know if these are paintings that are copies of actual photos? Or did he paint these from imagination?

 

[irishScott]

Awesome stuff, but I still prefer this:

25-30 mins.

Take photo with SLR camera. Load into photoshop. Apply generic filters. Print. Create brush marks on print with clear paint. Let dry. Frame. Wallah.

Did he paint those from memory or did he take a photograph and then recreate it on canvas? The former would be very impressive while the latter wouldn't be.

Well the latter would just take skill and persistence. That's something anyone could do if they put enough time into it.

I can pencil that, easily. Coloring is different. I'm a newb to colors right now. (assuming I was given a photograph, of course!!).

Drawing and painting are two very different things. A friend of mine is a budding artist and he can draw amazing scenes with a pencil or pen, or cut out a beautiful stencil, but he bitches and moans about how tough painting is. Getting the colors and strokes right without fucking everything up is really hard. Even if the artist is copying from a photo, that's still really impressive.
