Categories: World
By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/pedro-campos-and-his-oil-paintings-similar-to-photos.htmlPedro Campos — hyperrealist artist from Madrid. Using oil paints, he recreates incredibly realistic still lifes that are very easy to mistake for photographs.
He works in a variety of fields of activity — from creating interior design and illustration (in an advertising agency) to restoring furniture, paintings and sculptures. And he did not start painting at all until he was 30 years old.
Although many compare Campos with other masters of realism, he himself admires artists such as Lucien Freud, Richard Estes, Francis Bacon, Antonio Lopez and Anish Kapoor for the peculiarities of their work. Below you will find a small selection of incredible works by Pedro Campos.
