Taking hyper-realism to the next level


We’ve showcased a number of seriously talented hyper-realistic painters in the past, but have just been introduced to one who has stopped us dead in our tracks. We cannot find words to describe the amazing talents of Italian artist Emanuele Dascanio, so we’ve chosen some of our favorite images from his most recent body of work for you to admire below. Enjoy!

  1. He’s very talent when we speak about skills, but I would like to know if he uses photographs and copy all the details or if all this came from his head. And i can’t see any ideas or emotions on this, so i dont agree when we talk about amazing talent, art is not just skills to construct objective and realistic stuff
