I Will Never Trust My Eyes Again After Seeing This. It’s Beautifully Mind-Blowing.

These images below are not photographs. Yeah, seriously…
As unbelievable as it may sound, these are all hand-painted paintings by artist Jason de Graaf. His hyperrealistic paintings are all created with incredibly delicate brush strokes that result in the appearance of a high definition photograph more than a painting.
Jason says this about his work:
My paintings are about staging an alternate reality, an illusion of verisimilitude on the painted surface. I try to use objects as a vehicle to express myself, tell a story or least hint at something beyond what is actually painted. Therefore I try to choose objects that have meaning to me or are artifacts from my life.
You could say his work is quite…reflective.
Clearly he’s some sort of a magician, or he sold his soul for this exceptional talent. It’s the only way to explain this.
