Surreal Large-Scale Illustrations

These Detailed Graphite Illustrations Look Like Photographs

A Cape Town-based artist from South Africa named Jono Dry has created these beautiful large-scale detailed graphite illustrations.

These images may look like photographs at first but are actually large detailed drawings of surreal scenes. These images include elements that feature everyday things that have been given a surrealist twist from his own imagination. This artist has a strong passion for pencil drawing where he enjoys using graphite on paper as his best medium.

The use of everyday things enables him to manipulate and create stunning detail in each image. These detailed graphite illustrations make quite the impression as they look very real with an illusion. His use of charcoal really makes an incredible showcase of how these things can be interpreted in a fantasy world.
