Incredible life-like drawings

[Still Waters]

These images may look like photographs of some of the biggest names from stage and screen, but they have in fact been drawn completely by hand by an Italian artist.

The stunningly realistic pictures of the likes of Johnny Depp and Charlize Theron were created by Franco Clun using a simple lead pencil.

The steady handed artist has spent painstaking hours immortalising A-list names including British actors Patrick Stewart and Sir Ian McKellen.

The Daily mail may have its faults as a newspaper but there again they all do, however it has in the past 12 months showcased some outstanding artists and whilst these are great I still think many till look like drawings, outstanding drawings none the less.

Here are a few more examples, Paul Cadden is one of my favourites:
