I personally love this,
It gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling inside…. maybe the colors, maybe a little of my childhood boyhood. Whatever the case, that is what art is meant to do, like it or hate it,
make you feel something.

Estes and Close’ early work was famous for its freshness. Since them, many photorealist artists across the world have far surpassed those skills. http://www.thetoyzone.com/2009/blog/10-awesome-images-that-are-actually-paintings/

But then again, I LOVED marbles, the color, the light. Slightly obsessed with staring at them as a small child … :o}

Love the comic book page. The black and white with color splashes from the light of the marbles is a fantastic design element. Gives it a nostalgic feel, too.

Gotta admit, i'm one of the dismissers usually. But his work contains a self-referential quality that seems to boast indifference. While most photorealism is simply a display of skill, it's obvious that the artist is aware of his critics and therefore paints within quotations.

Reminds me of a little thiebaud, rosenquist, and lichtenstein.

Ah, I meant that generally, not in specific response to Mike.

Awesome … nice to see photo-realism getting some props. Refreshing, actually …

These photorealists always amaze me. I love Richard Estes and Chuck Close in particular. I hadn't heard of Glennray Tutor before, but thankyou for introducing me. Fantastico!
