Curriculum Vitae

Fulton Boggs is a hyperrealist sculptor, painter, and illustrator, pushing the boundaries of realism beyond what is visible to the eye. His work is defined by extreme precision, capturing every surface, texture, and material with absolute accuracy. Every sculpture is perfectly scaled, down to the finest details—even those that are nearly impossible to see. Rather than simply replicating reality, he enhances elements to make each piece feel even more lifelike than reality itself.

 

Fulton's artistic journey began as soon as he could pick up crayons. As a child, he would cover entire pages in crayon, completely immersing himself in drawing. He always carried a notepad, constantly sketching, and by kindergarten, he was already drawing perfect cartoon characters. At ten years old, he completed his first series of realistic oil paintings, which went on to win Scholastic Art Awards in Tennessee. From there, he continued refining his technique, moving from realism to photorealism—mastering everything from micro-paintings to large-scale compositions. But as his work evolved, he wanted to push realism even further.

 

Eventually, Fulton transitioned from painting to sculpture, as it allowed him to capture every aspect of realism in a way that no other medium could. Sculpting enables him to refine every surface, texture, and form to absolute perfection, taking hyperrealism to its most extreme level. Alongside his sculptures, he still enjoys drawing and gets all his illustrations tatted on himself. With sculpture, realism is no longer just an illusion—it becomes something tangible, something that can be seen from every angle. This shift marked the ultimate evolution of his work, allowing him to create pieces that exist beyond representation, becoming reality itself.
