Renowned artist Bert Monroy is known for his hyperrealistic style of extremely large format Photoshop illustrations. As an early adopter of digital imaging tools, he has been working with Photoshop since before it was released as a product by Adobe. He is the author of several books that showcase his illustrations and digital paintings, co-authored the very first book about Photoshop, and has authored numerous courses on photorealism for lynda.com. He is the former host of the long-running podcast Pixel Perfect with Bert Monroy, and an inductee of the Photoshop Hall of Fame. This installment of Creative Inspirations takes viewers inside the home studio and the personal world of this modern-day master. Watch as Bert adds the finishing touches to his largest digital image yet, a 25-foot wide digital illustration of New York's Times Square.

  • Hyper realistic stuff is fun. I didn't do it in the past because it takes a lot of processing power.

  • @artislife271 uncool ? lol you kidding me? there's no such thing as an uncool medium in art, its what you feel comfortable with, and if you can make magic with it, its worth it.

  • Hey Bert!

  • @artislife271 I think it's very cool! I think a lot of us artists "over a certain age" remember growing up on what was top of the line back in the day. For me, my Prismas, heavy textured paper, sheets of Letratone, etc. all have a special place on my shelf as much as my Wacom does on my desk. You're not alone! :)

  • awsome

  • Bert's a legend, Ive learnt so much from him

  • I use digital but I also like to use pencil and paper and prisma clolor markers. I know its uncool but I just feel comfortable with it. I also paint and am gonna be launching my own graphic design business soon. You rule!
