    Wow, it is hard to believe these are painted.

    Disproportionate, makes it all crap. He needs to go back to the basics and learn how the human body connects and works…Doesn’t matter how realistic it is if one leg is 4in longer than the other or hips are freakisly wider than they should be…

    • Agreed

      Agreed. It’s evident that he was great technique, but his figurative proportions are off, especially with the ear placement and shadows underneath the hands are flat and doesn’t coincide with the directional lines of the body and look static.

  • nancy sandoval

    He is a “Genius”

  • rafia

    In love with your work

  • ivan benic

    extremely well executed paintings but But I was suprized at the amateurish mistakes in figure drawings

    A few more years in figure drawing class would do him some good . for the sake of creating a painting we cant make one leg shorter then it should be just to fit into the painting .. a neck on one of the girls belongs on a body builder .. I can go on but… extremely well done art but the women need a bit more of a tan … some look a bit pale to me

  • ivan benic

    wow I just noticed He missed placing the ear by at least 2 inches or 4 cm if you like metric on the 4 th and 5 th painting from the bottom.

  • TheMAXXX

    This guy can’t paint nipples. HE always hides them! It’s like Rob Liefield with hands and feet!

  • stephen

    Every picture of him was brilliantly taken right before the very last stroke.

  • http://twitter.com/IvanSonando Иван Фигероа

    I think this might be a fake, why all of the paintings he seems to be painting are already finished? also, he es to clean to be painting, i mean his hands and clothes, and finally, he is not using any kind of godete. But you know that’s maybe just me.

  • Michael

    What a waste of talent. Why doesn’t he do something creative instead of faking photographs?

  • Ken

    Do you know what is a lot harder than painting perfect, smooth skin? Painting realistic, dimpled, imperfect skin. Let’s see some ladies with some meat on their bones! I’m sick of all these bone-bags getting idolized… there’s nothing to grab onto.

    • Nomseh

      I see what point you are trying to make here but… Calling women this shape “bone-bags” seems like a poor way to make said point. Why can’t all bodies, be they fat, skinny, chubby, lean, athletic, curvy, whatever, be fine? If these were pictures of “overweight” women and someone said “Let’s see some ladies who don’t look like a sack of lard! I’m sick of all these cows” It would be considered atrocious to say that in our ever-accepting culture (rightly so, as that would be a disgraceful thing to say), but somehow its okay to say a similar thing about skinny women? He is an artist… This is the body HE likes, so he paints it! Is that so bad? If you were him, maybe you would pain these ladies with a bit more meat on their bones, but this is the type of lady he likes to paint.

  • Iknow

    These are photos on canvas, and he is pretending to paint.

  • LONIE

    VERY REAL! I COULD NOT TELL IF THERE EVER WAS A REAL WOMEN IN ANY PAINTING.

  • St.Lumize Arts & Ideas.

    either Photography or Painting, he has done a great job,

  • robyn

    Those aren’t hyper-realist! I don’t know any women with real breasts like that!

  • dan

    I find it funny all the people saying that they’re bothered that its two skinny white girls he’s painted, and criticizing him for getting some of the proportions wrong. One you are making girls who are actually skinny feel bad about them selves, and its not their fault that they probably eat well and workout so they do have nice healthy bodies, and with the fact that he choose to paint ‘white girls’; they were just the subject that he decided to paint on, and the two girls makes for a very nice layout and composition. And for the people criticizing him on getting some proportions wrong, I mean really? I would like to see any of you paint that well, with his expertise of shading, plus saying why is he all clean and dressed? It is most likely that the photographer that took the photos had him stand by his already finished pieces and hold a paint brush just to give the viewing audience an idea. So before you criticize something just take a step back and admire it for what it is. Exquisite.

      The point of criticizing it for being two skinny white girls is that that is a stereotypic, male-centric view of female beauty. You’re talking about making skinny girls feeling bad? This is a perpetuation of a long history of sexualization of women for the male gaze. That is what makes girls and women feel badly about their appearance and link that to their worth as an individual.

      • http://www.facebook.com/rizzy.mq Rizzy MQ

        And what is so wrong with “male centric” view of beauty? He is a male who likely has the same perception of sexual beauty that most men have, which is not his fault, he’s programmed to find “stereotypical” thin girls beautiful. And besides, being skinny usually also means fit and healthy so wth is up with this criticism?

        If you’re going to criticize something, criticize the sexualization of the body in general. It’s not just the men who demand a certain appearance, it’s also the women who take advantage of this male perception and expose themselves in ways to manipulate them. The cultures that shun such behaviour are labelled as extremists, yet “free” cultures promote sexuality to the point that it’s oppressive.

        You shouldn’t have a problem with the girls being skinny or white, but with them being naked. I feel like a hypocrite looking at them but that’s precisely the point, i can’t avoid it because i’m naturally inclined to do so.

        And lastly, why the hell are we even arguing about this? When i was looking at the painting i was just blown awayyy by the detail and the talent this man possesses (and i’m an artist myself), then i scroll down here to find some bullcrap. He’s not trying to send a message here, just making something amazing so take it for what it is! it’s not our right to judge him for that.

  • Bannane

    Fake

  • SquidLove

    Hyper realism is silly. I’d love to see this skill in painting applied to a more interesting style. Hell, give one of the chicks two heads or 3 arms or something; anything – Something that you can’t simply just take a picture of.

  • seriously…

    I’m pretty sure these began as photos considering that they all have the same two hair styles and skin tone… And it’s likely he has more work this is probably just one gallery maybe you should do your research.
