I don't know how I feel about hyper realistic painting, because on one hand, holy shit. That must take an unbelievable amount of time, paint and patience; but on the other hand, why take several weeks to make a painting that looks like a really nice photograph, when you could take a couple of hours and make a really nice photograph?
I guess its nice that painters (Damien Loeb, specifically, who did that painting ^, and Alyssa Monks, who did this painting below) appreciate little candid things enough to spend an insane amount of time on them. That didn't used to happen.
