Dana Forrester
"Grove Hardware" - Framed Superrealism Photorealist Watercolor Painting

About the Item

A feat of superrealism masterfully done using watercolor, a notoriously difficult medium. (I apologize for the reflections on the glass - I took a couple of shots at a slight angle to reduce them.) The patience and talent it requires to create this sort of work just boggles the mind. 24" x 20" with frame, watercolor itself measures 14" x 10.5". There is a small 1cm crack in the glass in the bottom left corner that I didn't even notice at first, and it doesn't bother me, but you can replace the glass cheaply if it bothers you (don't let them sell you UV museum glass - it's only necessary if you'll have it in direct light; I owned a frame shop once!). Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans, with our firm guarantee.

'Outdoor Street Scene', by Sonya Terpening, Watercolor on Paper
By Sonya Terpening
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
Sonya Terpening's framed watercolor on paper painting titled 'Outdoor Street Scene' captures a calm scene outside of a cafe. The dining table depicted in the work becomes the focal point when observing this piece, as it is placed in the foreground and captures the eye with a vivid blue table cloth; on the table are four glasses placed upside-down and what appears to be a sugar and salt shaker. Terpening's realistic style is exemplified in her depiction of the table; the blue cloth's folds and wrinkles, and the heavy use of shadows and lighting on the table cloth, chairs, and glasses all contribute to the realistic qualities of the piece. The table is positioned on a red brick sidewalk/street directly outside of the cafe, which is also brick but painted white. The cafe door...
