The impressive hyper-realistic paintings by Juan Carlos Manjarrez

Juan Carlos Manjarrez is a mexican artist who creates amazing black and white hyper-realistic paintings. Self-learner, to Manjarrez "the artist is always an anarchist, in the best sense of the word, who pays attention only to his inner call, from three strong voices: the voice of death, the voice of love and the voice of art".

Portraying all kinds of people (women, men, babies), Juna Carlos Manjarrez shows impressive skill and technique, painting bodies and portraits with lots of details that can make you question if what you are seeing is a photo or a painting. And for the fact to work mostly in black and white, the artist says: "the reality is more real in black and white".
