Kyle Lambert, UK-based illustrator and oil painter, used the Procreate app on an iPad Air to create hyper realistic portrait of Morgan Freeman, who spent over 200 hours and made over 285,000 brushstrokes to finish this amazing image. “One of the big reasons I decided to do this painting was to inspire other budding artists to embrace digital art. A friend of mine who is a school teacher explained to me recently that whenever he plays one of my painting videos in class, his students become noticeably more engaged and excited about creating art. The idea that more people are engaging in art because of something that I have created is amazing to me.” said the artist.
