# Hyper-Realistic Goddess Illustrations Omar Ortiz Paints to Perfection Female Subjects By Ana Lopez | Published 2011-12-04 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omar-ortiz References: [sweet-station](http://sweet-station.com/blog/2011/12/omar-ortiz/) & [omarortiz.wordpress](http://omarortiz.wordpress.com/) Realistic art like the one done by artist Omar Ortiz never ceases to surprise viewers, as it creates identical images of reality. [Born in Mexico](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/racesroots-exhibition), Ortiz is a talented painter who studied Design for Graphic Communication. In 2002, he had his fist class on oil on canvas, and since then, he hasn't stopped doing it. These paintings show Ortiz's skills and fascination with the female body and white blankets. Hyper-realism and nudity make his art sensual and alluring. It's difficult to discern if the images are a [photograph or a painting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/image-painter), which is why Ortiz art pieces are so communicative and expressive. It's refreshing to find artists like Omar Ortiz who are staying away from the digital world to create traditional and meaningful art. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 98% | Activity: 100% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Hyper-realistic Art:** Opportunity to disrupt the art industry with even more realistic and detailed paintings that blur the line between photography and painting. - **Sensual Art:** Opportunity to disrupt the art industry with art that creates strong emotional reactions through the use of nudity and sexuality. - **Traditional Art:** Opportunity to disrupt the digital art industry by creating meaningful pieces through traditional mediums and techniques. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fine Art:** Opportunity to disrupt the fine art industry with hyper-realistic paintings that redefine what is possible with traditional techniques. - **Photography:** Opportunity to disrupt the photography industry with paintings that are so realistic they could be mistaken for photographs. - **Fashion:** Opportunity to disrupt the fashion industry with art that celebrates the sensuality and beauty of the female body. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Raunchy Anime-Inspired Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manuela-soto-sosa.md) - [Stunning Origami Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origami-portaits.md) - [3D-Printed Colorful Vessels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olivier-van-herpt-1.md) - [Neo-Mexican Art Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/para-morelio.md) - [Textile Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olga-de-amaral.md) - [Glamorous Artful Bronze Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweet-jane.md) - [Striking Sculptural Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculpture-candle.md) - [Surreal Love-Themed Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joakim-ojanen.md) - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md)
