Pictures drawn by pencil

Check these drawings out.  As a advisory, there is one nude drawing further down the page:

Quote

No, they're not photographs! The astonishing pictures drawn by PENCIL  By Kerry McQueeney

These might look like photographs, but it's not all black and white when it comes to the work of this artist.

Despite looking like they have been captured on a camera, these are actually hand-drawn images created by hyperrealist artist Paul Cadden.

The 47-year-old, from Scotland, is able to recreate photos in amazing detail, often just using only a pencil.

From the wrinkles on a woman’s face, a puff of smoke from a cigarette or dripping water - Cadden's drawings look unbelievably realistic.

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."


~ Dr. William Pierce

Friggin amazing..now that is art. My beau's ex wife has a hot glue gun and recycled trash and thinks she's an artist worthy of admiration. :whatever: But this...this is true art...beautiful, precise, lovely, skilled--the same God touch that touches another vocal cords when singing, this person's hand has been touched by God. Delightful to see such talent in a world of 'craft queens' turned art-teest. :cheersmate:

I'm an art snob and always have been..I like to see that God-touched talent to even call it art.
