Artist Creates Hyper-realistic Portraits Using Graphite Pencil And Charcoal That Look Like Photos

Artist Emanuele Dascanio creates hyper-realistic portraits using graphite pencil and charcoal that look like photos. If you think these portraits are photographs then you’re forgiven. Although it’s hard to believe, these hyperrealistic portraits are drawings rendered by graphite and charcoal.

The large, labor-intensive portraits some that take up to 780 hours to complete feature a combination of graphite and charcoal that are expertly rendered to form hyperrealistic compositions. Against a pitch-black backdrop, the illuminated figures’ incredible details are brought to life: every stray hair, wrinkle, and fold of fabric is visible.
