The art i chose was created by Photorealist Charles Bell (1935 – 1995) who was known for his original looking oil paintings of pinball and gumball machines, and toys Bell collected the items he created on paper, he painted them 10 times in their size in great eye catching colors. Charles Bell worked shortly as an accountant and studio musician, he created 200 artworks in his lifetime. Charles Bell took normal items that are enjoyed by few cultivated them, add some vibrant colors and made them amazing works of art. What distinguished bell’s work was the depiction of the small items amplified. The color he uses are the clearest and most vibrant that i have ever seen in an oil painting. Shortly before his death in 1995 he was employed as a studio bassist, playing with many musicians such as Victor Wooten. Charles Bell is my favorite photo realist along with artist and his work will last forever.
