Hm, I see people are confusing things here massively. This is also realistic:



Please, stop mixing up "creativeness" with graphic style.

That is highly detailed surrealism.  The opposite of realism.  It is a fine example of creative.

Of course it's surrealism (neo surrealism, to be precise) - with realistic graphic style. As opposed to, say Dali...

...which is also surrealism, but in the context of this debate could be called stylized.

 

Point is - photorealistic or stylized does not determine whether is something creative or not.
