Daniel Maidman (born 1975) is a painter and art writer who lives in Brooklyn, New York. His art and writing reflects eclectic tastes, with an emphasis on realism.
Daniel is another artist i looked at for inspiration for my hands final piece.
Some of his work below
The first image is not a painting it is a drawing that he has done of a hand and even though it is not a painting the detail he has added for the crease’s and lines of the hand and the white pencil to add some light to the hand is amazing.
The other two hands are paintings they look so realistic and life like, the colours that he has used and the shading if the pink tones in the hands and all the small details in them makes them look they are real hands.
