This artist demonstrates skill at photorealism, which is a technical craft, but does not produce “Art” that captures the period. Painting Art (rather than decoration) requires composition, monumental scale, civilizational narratives, in current aesthetic and cultural context.

@Juan200363 Blame the left (Marxists >Cultural Marxists >Postmodernist >Feminists), who by design, with malice and intent, undermined the Western Heroic, and Monumental Civic Arts tradition, with Critique (undermining). Craftsmanship != Art. Civilizational ideals are required for (high) Art.
