Hyper-Realistic Charcoal Shark Drawings


Robert Longo's charcoal drawings are so realistic that, if you have a fear of sharks, these might just give you nightmares. The New York-based artist depicts the menacing beasts with their mouths wide open and razor-sharp teeth pointing straight at us. You can really feel the immense power and threatening nature of the sharks, in this series he calls Perfect Gods.
