I just realized every big city now looks like a Richard Estes painting

[petalpetal]

okay for those who don’t know Estes is a photorealistic painter and considered on the original photorealistic painters. Whats striking about his paintings is that he painted Urban Landscapes like New York City but most of his paintings was devoid of life which in a time before Photoshop is something one would never see. here are some examples and yes these are paintings I promise 

Times Square at 3:53 P.M. (1985)

Holland Hotel (1980)

Joe’s Diner (1979)

The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (1979)

Columbus Avenue at 90th Street (1974)
