My friend’s dad has been shooting photographs of stationary subjects, then afterwards painting an acrylic replica of the image he shot. The majority of his paintings involve really incredible detail and shadows of wicker baskets, fruits, or vegetables. Basically, he paints the intricacies of still life.
Just before I went and shot some garage photos at Jim Bailey’s place, I was fresh out of a viewing of those acrylic paintings. The details were amazing, the shadow in particular.
I walked into Jim’s garage and quickly took note of the sun beaming through one of the windows which reflected off of this huge table saw. We lost a bit of detail in the printing phase of this photograph, but in the real thing it reminds me of my friend’s painting. The hard line of the shadow and the detail in the dust and shavings made me think of those acrylics that will one day be famous. Check it out: http://krawczykstudio.com/
