When we talk about hyperrealistic art, we mean the perfect and clean result that some artists manage to achieve in their works. In the field of painting and drawing, hyperrealistic art is manifested above all in the portrait: thanks to the skillful use of pencils and charcoals, it is possible to faithfully reproduce images, so much so that it is almost impossible to understand which is the photo and which is the drawing. Artist Dylan Eakin , a graduate of the University of Ozarks (Arkansas, USA) in sculptural art, discovered the world of hyperrealistic art, and in the years following his graduation he continued to work hard.
