Photo or Painting? With These Cityscapes, It's Almost Impossible to Tell

British painter Nathan Walsh brings a photo-realism style to urban landscapes.

The works of British artist Nathan Walsh are so rich in precise details that they look like photographs, but so full of texture that they give the impression of a world you can reach out and touch.

"Photography can only do so much," he says. "It sort of tends to reassert its own flatness. What I do more than anything is try and introduce a sense of volume and space and form. So you feel as if you can kind of enter into these things."
