Hyper-realistic Self-Portraits by Eloy Morales

Eloy Morales is a 39-year-old painter based in Madrid, Spain. He has been practicing his craft since 1995. Morales uses himself, family and friends , as subject matter. He does this so that he is able to better develop the psychological aspects within his hyper-realistic paintings.

Many people think that my work is based on details, but it is not that way… for me the secret is in the correct valuation of tones… tonal transition must be smooth to avoid abrupt cuts.

Via [Eloy Morales]
