Realism is the style of art that ___.

It shows something that hasn’t been changed by the artist in any way. Like drawing a realistic fruit bowl. The artist didn’t change the colors of the fruit. It looks just like the real thing.

This is it: Realism in the arts is the attempt to represent subject matter truthfully, without artificiality and avoiding artistic conventions, implausible, exotic, and supernatural elements.

Realism is an artist trying to draw or paint something the exact way it looks.
