Look again! The 'hyper-realistic' paintings that fool the eye into believing they are photographs


With their sharp lines, clear colours and distinct shapes, these images look like the work of a gifted photographer

But look closer - a lot closer - and you might do a double-take.

Because these are actually oil paintings by Spanish fine artist Pedro Campos.



Long legs! The attention to detail on this painting - from the curve of the legs to the shadow on the wall, is breathtaking

Incredible: Everything from the reflection of the tin to the crumpled bag makes this picture worth studying in depth

Good enough to eat! The meticulous attention to detail makes this clear bag of fruit look like it's a photographic image

This sweetie jar is a treat for the eyes and looks so real it could be a treat for the tastebuds

Mr Campos makes his stunning 'hyperealistic' creations using just a canvas, oil paint and paint brushes.

And the outstanding results has galleries and the public left reeling with astonishment.


Concentrating on every day subjects, the artist's bright pieces are striking, glossy and have a sharp attention to detail.

Mr Campos' attention to the tiniest of details - from the curve of an ankle, to the shadow on a wall, to the shine of a plastic bag, gives his creations a truly magical, realistic effect.

Mind and eye-boggling: Mr Campos even manages to capture even the soft shine of the strawberries, right down to the soft folds of the plastic bag

The shading on all of the parts and the metallic finish of the chrome components are unbelievably good
