Diane Evans exactly what I thought

I think the fabric is the most jaw-dropping part for me. wow

+anthony salaiz I think he does this instead of watching tv

What do u mean by modern day dumbing down? Like from school?

+augie 7414 I think he meant modern day technology, TV, modern day music and social media Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp and so on. BTW your name is freakishly similar to his. Is that a coincidence or are you the same person?

@@usamanasher6852 I hate when people put down tech like it's bad. The internet is the future

@@celesteadeanes4478 you too. The internet isn't bad.

+Marco Debart probably haters

+Marco Debart When it comes to taste well…nothing is written in stone. Now, as surprising as it may sound, I wouldn’t consider the drawing above completely “artistic” and no, it's not because i'm a hater, i'm totally aware of how difficult it is to copy a picture and clearly the guy in the video has some amazing skills, however the fact that he wants to reproduce an already existing image makes me doubt. You see, artists are known for CREATING things never done before which are rather unique (be either a photograph or a picture). With this said, i think the real art is in the picture Dascanio used as a reference and not his reproduction of it.

+HYBRIDM5 I know there are ppl that think like that. However the true meaning of the word art is more about what the creator is able to create, in the most facinating way possible.. Not just some paint to be trown on a canvas and then because the artist has some name and call it a masterpiece. I challenge ppl to make a drawing like this dude did. (hope you know what i mean)

+Marco Debart i completely agree with you. I’d rather have Dascanio’s work in a museum than any of these so-called “conceptual artists”. This drawing is a clear demonstration of patience and skill, which is admirable. Technically speaking his work is flawless but, as i said before, the moment he wants to do an exact same COPY of an ALREADY DONE image, his composition looses the artistic spark. Art is about expression and it’s not possible for someone to express him/herself when doing a reproduction because, in order to get it right, you have to submit to the “rules” of the image (light, colours, shadows etc.)

+HYBRIDM5 agree with you. this is art and to some people it's more like a skill to realstically copy a real object using hand.

take some time off playing games a couple hours or even minutes drawing

You can pay competitive and make some money!

Nah. That's art, but it's not realy that hard as you think (as you see he have special pencils for this kind of drawnings.. they have more paint alike texture). Not kind of art is hard if you have passion and talent. Some of modern art is shit, yes. But some of hyperrealistic art are boring and.. easy.. and shit. So well, just look for good arist on your own and you will find. And remember, critics are biggest killers and enemies of art! Hyperrealistic can be good, sometimes can even be magical and creative (that's rare in this kind of art sadly). But remember Picasso, Dali, Klee, Gogh, many many others, i can talk whole life? Don't be ignorant. Being ignorant kills art and creativity.

Where do u see paint?
