A bunch of drawers that draw.
STEVE MILLS - Photorealist Oil Painter
Here is an artist... who just blew my mind off! Names Steve Miller who makes photo-realistic paintings! His fascination with detail became his calling card. He sold his first drawing at the age of 11 and has been selling ever since.
His first solo show in 1983 was a smashing success, selling 33 of 35 originals at the Granary Gallery on Martha's Vineyard. In 1989 he began his affiliation with Gallery Hencoh in New York City. Between the 2 galleries, Mills has sold almost every piece he has painted. Producing and selling over 500 paintings in his first 20 years has had collectors literally waiting in line outside the gallery before an opening; creating such frenzy, one show sold out in 10 minutes.
Without much words...I will let the paintings do the talking. Am posting few of his works here... more can me viewed at http://www.stevemillsart.com/
These are paintings...yes friends! PAINTINGS...and of daily mundane stuff, we all see and ignore...
Looking at these I realize how much we just see, but fail to observe...Just enjoy the details!!!

ENJOY ALL!

Absolutely amazing! Some people don't see the point of this sort of art. "Why not just take a photo". I have tremendous admiration for the skill and patience these artists have. I would rather have a painting or drawing than a photo!

Mind blowing, but at the same time I am surprised , I dont find any paintings of 'people'. Seems this is an area he is not avid of or good at. ;)
