New photorealist/hyperrealist artists added 2010.

I have added some more of my favourite photorealist and hyperrealist artists to my ever growing list posted in November 2009:
THE BEST PHOTOREALISTS/HYPERREALISTS LIST

I have added the following artists so far this year:
Juan Francisco Casas - figurative artist that mainly uses biro.


Sam Jinks - sculptor, often quite disturbing works.


Evan Penny - sculptor, famous for producing distorted figure sculptures.


Cesar Santander - artist often depicting antique tins and toys.


Josep & Pere Santilari - two twin Catalonian brothers that paint figures and still life.


Jamie Salmon & Jackie K. Seo - sculptors of hyperreal figures.


Cynthia Westwood - figurative artist often depicting the female nude bathing.


As and when I come across more, I will update the list. Any suggestions as to artists that I could add are very welcome.

Feel free to add a link to the list if you like too: http://designmobius.blogspot.com/2009/11/hyperrealistsphotorealists.html"

In fact, it has been gradually infiltrating the art world for several years now. AI algorithms can now generate artwork, and some of these pieces have even been sold at prestigious auction houses.  (images created at random using Midjourney) However, the impact of AI on art is not limited to the creation of new pieces.
