While we are used to artists of the world being creative and finding new and unique ways to portray reality, it may come as a surprise when you see oil paintings looking like photographs. It takes a great set of skills and attention to detail, yet artist Johannes Wessmark seems to have no problem with that.
The self-taught photorealist works with acrylics and oils to create his pieces. The on-demand knowledge of Wessmark's painting has made his workshops and lectures in Sweden and the United States a valuable experience for collectors and admirers, and he has published two books showing his specialized technique and style in photorealism.
