Fabio Gonçalves de Arruda, a São Paulo-based artist, creates hyperrealistic graphite drawings that are so detailed they resemble high-contrast photographs or film stills.

His work merges classical techniques with pop culture influences, resulting in portraits that capture both likeness and deep character. Whether portraying Morgan Freeman’s expressive gaze or Nelson Mandela’s quiet intensity, Fabio masterfully balances precision with atmosphere.
