We all can differentiate between a painting and a photo. But there is an artist who challenges the horizon of the painting by super realistic oil paintings.
Alex Roulette is a New York-based artist having an extraordinary portfolio of incredibly detailed oil paintings. I have seen a lot of hyper realistic pencil drawings and 3d painting, but it’s the first time i saw such a painting with photographic details.
Alex prepares for painting by collection of found images and going thoroughly through photographic environment and carefully gathering large collection source material.
Artist explains, “In constructing the painting, I use combinations of these reference images, to fabricate an open-ended narrative with the emotion of a memory. Drawing collages of image fragments onto panels before painting them in oil. The resulting paintings are both realistic and subtly uncanny, recalling some idealized vacation and a deeply personal longing for past experiences.”. None other than thorough preparation, abundance of references and great talent make these paintings “alive”.
