Chuck Close
He was born in America, Chuck achieved fame as a photorealist as he made massive scale portraits. He is also a painter as well as a photographer. He was destined to become a third generation abstract expressionist. Close threw away his paint brushes to experience new techniques, he moved on to using water color. He suffers from prosopagnosia, using these portraits he was able to identify faces better.
Chuck was excellent at making his work look realistic. The structures on the faces are perfect, he uses a good use of tone and texture too.
