Photorealism article
Dgeugene (talk) 01:17, 18 January 2010 (UTC)  I don't know if this is the place to point out a major error in the article on Photorealism.

Richard Estes is identified as a major Photorealist although his original paintings do not look like Photorealism when you see them at full size rather than in a book.

More importantly he does not use photomechanical means to transcribe his many snapshots. His underpaintings are loose and gestural. He then alters and fills in details based on his snapshots.

See: "Richard Estes" by John Arthur, Chameleon Books 1993, pp. 130-135.
