The artist spends a lot of time painting portraits for people but sometimes gets bored and turns his hand to 3D portraits.

Pabst told Buzzfeed news: “Every day for 10 hours I was painting faces. It was a challenge to begin with but I got bored,” explained Pabst. “I wanted to go beyond the boundaries of the sheet of paper and leave 2D behind.”

“I want to inspire people through my art and show them that they can do anything. I want to show the magic of painting.”

Stefan’s drawings were so realistic that people didn’t believe that they were actually pieces of art and this video of the man doing what he does best is hypnotic.
