Touch is a series of hyperreal paintings by Korean artist Kwangho Lee. the odd thing about cacti is that you actually DO want to touch them, in all their weird, rubbery, spiky, fluffy glory. you know you shouldn’t, but you just kinda want to.

These hyper-realistic paintings are just about the only cactus we want to touch: http://t.co/FMJPmcyCof http://t.co/I396FLnSgi
wow it’s hard to believe they aren’t photographs. just amazing.
As a desert lady, born and raised in Arizona, I appreciate the subject matter and the realism of these pieces. Cacti come in so many beautiful forms!

The ones with the peach fuzz on them got to me. Some people have such unreal amounts of talent I just need to pinch myself.
So so gorgeous… and the paint work and details are simply amazing!
These paintings are really something. I agree, it is had to believe they are not photographs. So beautiful, anyway. Thanks for sharing.
