Hi and welcome!

The thing I've found with doing these photo-realistic paintings, whether in Photoshop or in real paints, is that folks tend to believe they're NOT real! I would always have to offer some sort of evidence that it was painted. You may have to do this as well.

People would be amazed and impressed and I had a lot of attention, but the bottom line was that nobody was buying my work. For me, painting in photo-realism was more about the challenge of a precise outcome rather than the creativity and composition. I don't paint photo-realistically anymore. I wanted my paintings to appear painted and structured. I didn't start making good money selling my art until I got away from photo-realism.

Photo-realism takes skill but lacks creativity. I for one can appreciate the skill involved here and the absolute attention to detail. In your posted image we have an exact, albeit skillfully painted, copy of an otherwise boring photo of a pair of glasses.

Very well done but very blasé!
