I made this picture not long ago whil practicing different ways to draw/paint. I am still a big noob and I would like my pictures to look like they were painted in rel life so I have some things to practice :)
Photo realism, for some is the holy grail of artistry. Good goal to aspire to. I know you can do it, and you'll spend your whole life perfecting it. Just keep painting, and if you seek to pait this style I would like to encourage you to start building a reference library of real objects/items/people or whatever you desire to paint. You will only achieve realism if you learn to see what is there/isn't there and accurately recreate it. There is no such thing as having a reference library that is too big. You will find pro painters do this.
Well done. It has the feel of oil on velvet.
