Paintings: Photorealistic Urban Landscape


Photorealistic Urban Landscape Paintings by British painter Nathan Walsh

Nathan Walsh captures scenes from the streets of Chicago and New York in paintings so detailed as to approach photorealism.  He accomplishes the feat through an elaborate system of underlying sketches that resemble architectural blue prints.  Each of the paintings takes Walsh between three and four months to complete.

  
"I deal exclusively with the urban landscape and aim to present a painted world which in some ways resembles the world we live in. I am fascinated by the city, it’s visual complexity and constant state of flux. The act of painting is an attempt fix this information and give vision to our experience of living within it."
