Hyperrealistic 3D “Paintings” of Elegantly Swimming Fish Created on Layers of Resin
For artists interested in working in three dimensions, sculpture may seem like the most fitting genre to explore. However, as creatives Riusuke Fukahori, Keng Lye have demonstrated, resin paintings have proven to be an alternative, avant-garde approach to traditional 3D art. And now, Chinese artist Lillian Lee joins the ranks of these master resin painters. Lee's collection of hyperrealistic paintings features a focus on animals, including colorful koi fish (admired by the artist for being “so peaceful and very gentle to each other”), elegant bettas, and even slithering dragons.
