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.

'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.’
