Chuck close as I am about to displays work I think is amazing just due to the fact he produces a photo realistic view of portraits.

It is crazy how real these pictures are as they actually look like photographs, I wouldn't yet any way would be able to produce something as generally this fantastic but maybe later on in life.

This is my own version, edit of my grandma, a photograph gradually managed with great diifeculty to try and get increasingly similar to close's black and white portraits. By using brightening and constrast as well as blackscale, I used the curve tool to try and gather the correct shadow and highlights to make the photohgraph and tonal as I could.
