Hyper-realistic animals and acrylic resins Bashny.Net

Artist Keng Lai from Singapore using acrylic paints and epoxy resin creates unusual works of art. Many of his works take the photo. Keng Lai uses the technique, which was first introduced by Japanese painter Riuzuke Fukaori. With this technique creates the illusion Lai Keng animals floating in the water by means of resin. On top of it is covered with a layer of acrylic paint.

His first series of works by Ken Lai began in 2012. Illustrations were all "flat". Using a hierarchical arrangement of resin and acrylic paint on different parts of the illustrations he created depth. The laborious process requires maximum patience and attention to detail, as each part is composed of multiple layers. In general, well-dried and inflicted layers to create a real sense of depth and life.

This year Keng Lai decided to do an experiment with an octopus, to see whether this technique will advance to a higher level. It is covered with acrylic paint and resin included in the action 3D element. It was a small pebbles for octopus.

For the artist used a turtle shell eggs, and for the rest of acrylic paint. It was all started to make illustrations more 3D effect.

Works Kanga Lai difficult to classify, but the most adequate definition of this direction in art is perhaps the "volumetric painting." On a separate direction to speak with an ulterior motive.

Each work Kanga Lai - it's incredibly hard work, but the result justifies all his expectations. It is worth noting that the artist likes to put their animals in traditional oriental tableware, and besides the photographs for completed works often flashed chopsticks, pots and other kitchen utensils. The artist does not give any explanation for this fact, leaving room for humor and imagination of the viewer.

Of course, this work does not last the day, and even not a week that immediately affects the cost of the work. But if you decide to buy a copy of the stunning acrylic paintings, do not rush. All that is created by the artist, at the moment already sold out and almost torn from his hands. Now the artist is forced to apologize to potential customers and ask them to wait.

Blurring the boundary between painting and sculpture, Keng Lai continues his experiments and I am sure that painting with acrylics is fraught with enormous potential for creative expression. It revealed the secrets of painting in layers of acrylic varnish, and he plans to do in the near future. We will wait.
