Look again! The 'hyper-realistic' paintings that fool the eye into believing
they are photographs
With their sharp lines, clear colours and distinct shapes, these images look
like the work of a gifted photographer
But look closer - a lot closer - and you might do a double-take.
Because these are actually oil paintings by Spanish fine artist Pedro Campos.
Long legs! The attention to detail on this painting - from the curve of the legs
to the shadow on the wall, is breathtaking
Incredible: Everything from the reflection of the tin to the crumpled bag makes
this picture worth studying in depth
Good enough to eat! The meticulous attention to detail makes this clear bag of
fruit look like it's a photographic image
This sweetie jar is a treat for the eyes and looks so real it could be a treat
for the tastebuds
Mr Campos makes his stunning 'hyperealistic' creations using just a canvas, oil
paint and paint brushes.
And the outstanding results has galleries and the public left reeling with
astonishment.
Concentrating on every day subjects, the artist's bright pieces are striking,
glossy and have a sharp attention to detail.
Mr Campos' attention to the tiniest of details - from the curve of an ankle, to
the shadow on a wall, to the shine of a plastic bag, gives his creations a truly
magical, realistic effect.
Mind and eye-boggling: Mr Campos even manages to capture even the soft shine of
the strawberries, right down to the soft folds of the plastic bag
The shading on all of the parts and the metallic finish of the chrome components
are unbelievably good
How does he do it?! The Madrid-based artist used to decorate nightclubs
The artist chooses to focus on everyday subjects to make his pictures even more
interesting
Mr Campos' artistic foundations began in nightclubs - he started decorating bars
and restaurants when he was younger, and also worked for advertising agencies as
an illustrator.
He studied art restoration in Madrid, working on furnishings, paintings and
sculpture.
But from 30 he finally began oil painting and developed a portfolio as a fine
artist.
The clarity of his work is in high demand.
He is represented by the Plus One Gallery in Pimlico, Central London.
Beep beep: Even the faint reflections of the books are painted in the glossy
surface
This could be a photograph of the real thing as Mr Campos even includes the
reflection of the window frames
Work of art: The artist honed his skills studying art restoration, and now can
produce these works that mimic life beautifully
Caught on canvas: This luscious-looking bag of fruit brings the subject alive
with the astonishing realistic look
Like looking into a mirror: The artist turns his talents to this mind-bending
picture - it's enough to make you dizzy thinking about it
