Believable portraits of women

Jen Mann is a talented Canadian artist who creates believable portraits with highlights on faces against crumpled foil or paper. Her painting can not fail to admire the highest level of skill and quality of execution of large-scale paintings.
The character of her picture is the image of a young modern girl, decorated with a large number of rhinestones or multi-colored light highlights. This additional element complicates the task of hyper-realistic reproduction on the canvas conceived.
Her paintings are a kind of interpretation of the world in which we live, the contrast between reality and virtuality.
Large-scale female portraits, it is almost impossible to distinguish from photos.
Very often in the comments under our publications one can come across an option, why draw so, if there is a camera. We agree with different points of view, but as it seems to us, as if the picture is not executed, in what technique, whether it is close to reality or not - all this is the artist’s life and emotions. Another part of the readers will say - the photographer is also an artist. Of course, and this is true. They are united by the fact that they are creative people, only some use modern technology to achieve their goals and transfer feelings, others canvas, paper, pencils, oil and a brush.
