Arinze Stanley is a self-taught artist from Nigeria with an amazing talent – to create photo-realistic portraits using charcoal and graphite. The artist spends hours creating each of the portraits and all the details are brought to perfection.
“Starting at an early age of 6, Arinze had always been enthusiastic about drawing realistic portraits on paper. Being exposed to his family’s paper business, Arinze grew to love paper and pencils as his toys at a very tender age,” his website explains.
Stanley recently opened a new solo exhibition at Jonathan LeVine Projects in New Jersey. If you can’t make it to New Jersey, scroll down to check out these amazing portraits.
