Photorealistic paintings
|
Charles Thomas Close (July 5, 1940 – August 19, 2021) was an American painter, artist and photographer. He made massive-scale photorealist portraits. Close often painted abstract portraits of himself and others, which hang in collections internationally. Close also created photo portraits using a very large format camera. A catastrophic spinal artery collapse in 1988 left him severely paralyzed, but he continued to paint. He died on August 19th, 2021.
