A steamy shower

So what would make me think that images of a steamy shower are art?  I know you are thinking that Mrs. DeWitt has offically lost her mind. 

But just humor me for a moment and take a look at these photos.


So what makes them art?  Can you spot the reason I posted them?

What if I told you that they are all oil paintings?  The artist is Alyssa Monks from New York and each painting is a separate canvas that has been painted in oil paints.

Now what do you think of these pieces?  Does their art appeal increase now that you know what they are?  What do you think of them?  Would you be able to paint like this?

  5. I really like how it isn't really clear but it is a fuzzy like after you take a shower and you have a mirror in the bathroom.

  6. This artwork is so amazing. All the textures in the art make it so nice and all the details also make it stand out. The way they made the fog on the windows and the rain effect on the people is awesome.

  15. The time it would take to put all the details into putting steam on the glass. This must have taken a long time to make.

  16. It would take me forever to make the hair. I wonder what colors they used for this. I bet they had to mix a lot of paint. the one with the water looks good and hard to do.

  26. That's, crazy. That looks super time consuming and soo realistic. The sweat running down the shower door and the hair look realistic enough to be a picture.

  27. Why is it a girl, is it because we are all alpha and wanting to become a "chad" that we can't even use a man, or heck even a non binary. The use of women is showing that we can't our hands to yourself, just like fake news.

    ReplyDelete
  28. This is so realistic I think it's empirical proof that we in the matrix. Robots have taken over society and woo us with there art to gain our trust. Be careful and don't trust anything, or anyone.

  51. From the second picture i felt like they were not photographs. my first thought was that they had to not be photos because there is no way you could post them on here if they were. I am sure this is a difficult thing to do.
    I dont know for sure becuase i have never oil painted

    ReplyDelete
  52. I think these would be very hard to paint. It looks like there is layers because there is steam on the glass which would also be very hard to paint because there is a lot of details. I would not buy these. Why would I hang a picture like this in my house. It wouldn't fit.

    ReplyDelete
  53. This is just a picture. Not art. Very lame

    ReplyDelete
  54. very true Owen S. But this art took a very ;loong time to do and is unquie. very cool

    ReplyDelete
  56. This is really good I don't think I can do this, it looks pretty real but I Ike it how there is steam in it.

  58. I don't really like this artist because truly anyone can take a picture of a woman in a shower and call it art

    ReplyDelete
  59. I still don't think this is art, literally i can throw a turd on the floor, draw it, get some turd on it a bit , let it dry, and sell it for like 20K for, say turd from a sabre cat

  60. I think the water paintings are really cool. I think it would be awesome but difficult to do.

  62. It isn't bad but kind of weird. I wouldn't buy it. But good for them.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  68. These are kind've cool but kinda weird too. I wouldn't want a picture of some random chick in the shower.

    ReplyDelete
  69. I think that this is interesting. I personally don't really enjoy this type of art that much compared to others who might (because I think it's a little weird). One thing I can say is that it looks like whoever made this put a lot of time and effort into it.

    ReplyDelete
  70. This is so amazing i literally could not belive it was real for like a whole 5 mins. Then i realized that it was real when my teacher told me so i didn't believe her fore 30 seconds.Finally i believe her because she explained that she wouldn't of posted it other wise so basically still in disbelief.

    ReplyDelete
  71. this is really cool and it looks really real. i didn't think they were very cool until i saw that they're paintings. these are very unique and this artist is very talented.

    ReplyDelete
  72. I think having a painting of a woman in a shower is a little weird for a home, but I would be fine seeing this in a gallery. I would have a hard time making something like this.

    ReplyDelete
  73. These images look so real i wouldn't of guessed they were paintings. I really like how it isn't really clear but it is a fuzzy like after you take a shower and you have a mirror in the bathroom.I honestly can't see this as art.

  74. I thought it was real for a little bit. Very realistic, i cant even draw a straight line and people can do this. That's just amazing.

  77. i feel bad for the girl who had to get naked and get in the shower and take photos like these what would her papa do if he saw this

    ReplyDelete
  78. I am shocked how realistic these look. At first I thought they were photos not a painting. I think it would be really challenging to make it look like steam.

    ReplyDelete
  79. At first I thought these were photos. The look very realistic and hard to do.
