We are already familiar with the concept of photorealism, or as it is also called, hyperrealism. Just remember the photographs that the artist Juan Francisco Casas from Italy draws with a ballpoint pen. However, the author, whose brush these photographs belong, prefers to paint in color, which makes his works even more similar to photographs. No wonder he is called one of the best modern airbrushes.
The Frenchman Hubert De Lartigue adores women for their beauty, grace, smoothness and roundness of forms. And to photograph.. sorry, drawing them is more pleasant for a man. That is why it is the ladies who most often become the heroines of his photographs.
Tellingly, Hubert draws photographs "from the head". He rarely invites models to capture their curves on paper. Often, all the young ladies depicted are casual passers-by, acquaintances, neighbors, or simply people seen by the artist on the pages of magazines and newspapers.
Sometimes Hubert de Lartigue paints a real photographic portrait, but there are also so-called "collections" when he creates a picture, drawing the eyes of a girl from a magazine, the nose of a school friend he met by chance, the lips of a saleswoman from a nearby store … The result is simply amazing work, which, by the way, can be seen on the Hubert De Lartigue website
