Designer hyperrealist California based Eric Zener draws beautiful oil painting. His main theme - water, swimmers, air bubbles in the water, beaches and just people. Sometimes Eric uses a mixed technique and then his remarkable paintings can not be distinguished from the photos.

According to the artist "My work is about psychological turning points and transformations and risk, taking that proverbial leap of faith, balanced with that quest for finding refuge, finding quietness and stillness and escapism," he said. "Some [paintings] are very, very introspective escapism. Some are just the joy, the pool full of people in this temporary oasis. The 10 minutes when you hit the water for the first time and the smell of sun tan lotion hits your nose. You really don't think about anything for those first few minutes."
