Intense Blue
I really like Daniel Barkley’s painting style. The characters in his work have expressive faces, and this is a result of how he uses different colors for their skin in combination with rugged brushstrokes. The theme of his artwork is surprisingly related to biblical and mythological stories. “Barkley wants to avoid connections to a particular faith that admits only one vision, although spirituality, mysticism and the supernatural are important element in his work.” [1]

It is amazing the number of talented hyperrealist artists out there. In this post, you can see another fine example: the work of Javier Arizabalo. The way he paints skin textures is just exquisite, and his lighting is beautiful in each composition.

“Cosmopolis” (2012)
Don DeLillo’s may have written the source material but this is director David Cronenberg’s “Cosmopolis.” The plot follows a 28 year old billionaire Eric Packer (Robert Pattinson), as he sits in his fortified limousine insisting that he be taken across the (unnamed) city to get a haircut.
