Description In this image i wanted to study the mundanity of brushing teeth, and relate it to the viewer in the most harshest sense.

Working in a hyper realistic style enables me to distance myself from the person in the image, but heightens the connection to the original photographic source.

I like the fact that your paintings don't show the person as a beautiful human being, you just put them in a realistic, ordinary scene, and the way you work is just amazing! your paintings just look like photos!

"and relate it to the viewer in the most harshest sense." Most definitely. I was like "ugghh...so real! and gross!" Hahah, I would NOT want to touch that face but you did a great job. The detail is horribly amazing. And u didn't hide flaws. Awesome

what kind of brush do you use for the fine hairs?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Andrewnewtonart In reply to schnellzz [2009-09-30 08:21:40 +0000 UTC]

just a normal fine brush... I have to water down the oil paint usually with alot of linceed oil to get the ability for fine effects like that.

just wondering, do you use a projector to outline the picture onto canvas?

Andrewnewtonart In reply to make-coffee-not-war [2009-04-27 04:08:16 +0000 UTC]

Hiya, no I dont use a projector I just grid the canvas and copy section by section the photographic information into painting information.
This is what gives the intensified detail to areas of the face usually gone unoticed.

Thanks

make-coffee-not-war In reply to Andrewnewtonart [2010-04-20 11:32:43 +0000 UTC]

wow thats dedication! when ive tried that in the past i can never get the proportions right! but yes, you never get the exact detail you want from a projector and it does feel like cheating
