New Shoes For H By Don Eddy



This image refered to a realistic picture, that could be seen in a real world or even now a days.I like this image because it shows different values of the colour. This image is a realism type of an image.

Don Eddy numbers among the American painters called "Photorealists." These artists used photographs as inspiration for skillfully rendered representational images, but in reality, their work did not report the factual accuracy that a photograph implies.

Eddy once explained, "You can either look through the window, or at the window, or at the reflection in the window. Nobody ever looks at all three at once, because it is impossible to focus on all three." In New Shoes for H, however, Eddy tried to accomplish this feat. Rather than creating a realistic representation of the matter, Eddy re-interpreted the image, exaggerated colors, and combined elements of several different photographs. Although rendered in a realistic style, the resulting painting is a product of the artist's creativity and interpretation.
