Artist's Portrait Painting Is So Good It Looks Like A Photo

I don't believe this shiz. :bootyshake:


Artist Dru Blair presented a photo portrait to his class and instructed them to reproduce the photo in painting as best they could. After the class had ended, he decided to test the limits of his painting skills and took it upon himself to recreate the photo, with pretty startling results.

I have done a lot of art work in my life. And can say this is possible with an airbrush only. It would be impossible with oils or watercolors. People do this all the time with magazine articles. They touch up photos to make people look more perfect. None the less this is pretty impressive.
