Painting by Paul Cadden

Working primarily with graphite and chalk, Cadden creates incredibly detailed portraits and scenes that capture subtle human expressions, emotions, and everyday moments with astonishing precision. His work explores the depth of realism by emphasizing the emotional and psychological layers behind the physical appearance of his subjects. Through his meticulous technique, Cadden invites viewers to reflect on perception, reality, and the complex narratives hidden in ordinary faces and places.
