Hyper-realistic portraits by Simon Hennessey

British artist Simon Hennessey paints portraits in the style of hyper-realism, creating a pattern almost indistinguishable from photographs. Simon changes the perception of reality itself by using imitation of reality or hyperreality. Therefore his hyper-realistic paintings much sharper than original photos.
