LIFE-LIKE PENCIL DRAWINGS
AT first glance these images could easily be mistaken for photographs, but they are in-fact real life drawings created using nothing but coloured pencils. From extremely intrusive close-up images to more creative sketches, these extraordinary works are the product of American illustrator Morgan Davidson, 21, after she fell in love with drawing at an early age. 'There are two sides to my work,' explains Morgan. 'On the one side I have a series of drawings that zoom in on the face, breaking the 'personal space' bubble we always put up around us.’
