Digital Model Recreations

These Digital Paintings by Innes McDougal are the Ultimate Illusion

Innes McDougal is a talented artist who creates incredible realistic paintings. Sometimes his works look more like sketches and sometimes their subject is an anonymous woman, but for the most part, McDogal's art is hyper-realistic and focuses on some of Hollywood's most popular (and beautiful) women.

Hailing from the United Kingdom, McDougal has painted everyone from Eva Mendes to Christina Aguilera and Jennifer Aniston. Although McDougal has an apparent affinity for hot celebrities, he has a particular love for Victoria's Secret Angel Adriana Lima. Painting her looking sultry, shocked and even just goofing around, her face lends endless inspiration to the artist.
