Marcello Barenghi is a hyperrealistic artist from Milan who has over 2.5 million subscribers on YouTube, where I originally discovered his art. As a hyperrealistic artist, Barenghi uses different artistic techniques to create extremely lifelike works that rival the detail of an image from a high quality camera. The attention to detail and sheer quality of his art is very inspiring for artists as he shows his entire artistic process in his videos.
The skill and effort required to reach this level of artistic ability is remarkable and is very awe-inspiring since each drawing takes several hours to complete. For example, the instant ramen package took Barenghi five and a half hours to draw and this lightbulb took him four hours to draw. I remember seeing his videos several years ago and I am glad to see that he is still posting amazing content.
