Hello folks, today I decided to share this piece of art I did of famous Nigerians / British boxer Anthony Joshua, who happens to be one of my favorite boxer I really love his physique and wish I had that kinda body but it only takes a lot of hard work and dedication lol. I have always been a huge fan of him and this lead me into drawing him. I have watched him get knocked down and get up again, he is a real fighter who has so much courage in the sport of boxing.
This work is basically a photorealism work.

📌 What is photorealism?

Photorealism describes a highly realistic style of art that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s in New York and California.

I have always being an artist who love to explore different forms of art, I just done want to be bonded towards a certain kind of rule in art. Art is more like an experiment for me.

  • Mediums:
    📌 Charcaol Pencil
    📌 Kneaded eraser
    📌 Glossy paper
    📌 Brush
    Size of work: 16 X 20

The shading technique that is most suitable for photorealistic art is mostly

📌 Blurring Method
In shading my work I made use of brushes to blend the charcoal on my paper.
