Someone (not you, morphius) with a better background in art please correct me if I'm wrong , but it's my impression the fact that the art works in this thread have things recognizeable as people, animals, and concrete, everyday objects means that this is not abstract art.

I also think that creating photorealistic recreations takes technical expertise, but I don't see anything artistic about it.
