Malaysian artist Monica Lee draws amazingly photo-realistic images with graphite pencils. She states: “I like to challenge myself with complex portraits especially people with freckles or beard.

Chilean artist Dasic Fernandez has created a series of eye-catching street murals that “ooze with bright colors and patterns”.  His style is recognizable through the marriage of realistic portraits and layers of rich colors applied onto the fabric of the subject's garment.  These fabrics pay homage to the “Yemeni community of Hamtramck, Michigan” while others are depicted as bandanas covering a graffiti artist's face at work.  The combination of repetitive patterns creates dreamy illusions, inviting viewers to explore their imagination.  Find more of the artist's works on his website. 

In his series “Pencilism”, Miami-based artist Federico Uribe does amazing sculptures of pencils with different colors. The sculptures are so detailed that they look sometimes like classical paintings and landscapes, animals and humans’ sculptures in 3D.
