Guess what, it is just a painting

Who would think that this picture is not real, but a hand made painting. This picture was posted in facebook by the owner itself, Emel Espiritu. At first, people are arguing if the picture he posted is real or not. It was a mind blowing indeed, a hyper realistic painting made by Filipino artist. You can visit his facebook to view some of his masterpiece. His post went viral and people are amazed of what they saw after knowing that it was just a painting. A lot of people appreciate his talent, the post gain thousand of comments and shares already.

When you see it, you will not expect that it is a painting at first glance. I tried to show to my friends and asks them if how they look at it, if its real or just a painting? 5 out of 10 says, it was real. The paining is detailed and 100% human like image. It was ana amazing talent and skills indeed.

Yes its painting, it was bought by Julius Babaw

It is a painting! Amazing right? The one standing at the right is Emel Espiritu the owner and the painter itself. On the left side is the wellknown personality, Julius Babaw. He bought this painting after it went viral online. The price is unknown, but i guess it is worth the effort of the painter or even more.

I knew it! It was a painting! Too bad I wasnt able to join in the game earlier! Haha. Knew it was a painting because of the hands but the rest looks really real.

At first,i thought it was not a painting..until i saw the second picture..it was wow.

Its very realistic especially the face. The hands and fingers can give it away more somewhat but it is still very cleverly done and with loads of talent
