Incredible. I really like the hyper-realist movement. This is the first I've seen done in pencil.

As Rush might say, my preferred art comes from Realityville.

Yes, amazing is the proper adjective for this. Look at the old man’s face. His beard seems to lose focus the further from the focal point, just as a photograph would. What an eye.

Taking an average of between three and six weeks to produce, Cadden creates about seven pieces each year - which usually come in A1 or A0 sizes - and sell at galleries for up to £5,000 each.

Figure the gallery split is 50%. In the socio-political art world, artistic talent is not a requirement for success.

Those hyper realistic pencil drawings are beyond belief. They blow me away. How does one do that? I can't even conceive.

Same with this:

a few simple line and it looks like someone in particular. Blows me away.

In his world, do all men have beards and moustaches? And the women have no “chest muscles”?

Anyone think this photo resembles Richard Gere a few years from now?

The human artist has come a long way since the cave paintings Chauvet.
