Discoveries of the week

I've always  loved hyperrealistic images, especially those created with oil paint,  pastels or colored pencils.
This morning, as I was lurking through Facebook, I came across a friend's post who was raving about  Amy Lind's paintings. So I had to see what all the fuss was about and discovered these beautiful portraits. 


And then I came upon another hyperrealist artist — Istvan Sandorfi. His paintings are amazing.  He doesn't have a personal website, but a group named Friends Of Sandorfi Artworks  (FOSAW) developed a site supporting Sandorfi's artwork.
