The works of this Japanese artist named Aria might leave quite an impression on you given that the artist is completely self-taught. Aria makes hyper-realistic 3D drawings that seem to come out of the paper as the artist makes it seem as if it's just an optical illusion. From random inanimate objects such as soda cans to fruits, the art is detailed and impressive, to say the least.

The artist first sketches out what she wants to draw and then mostly uses colored pencils to fill it in and give it some final touches to make it seem as if her two-dimensional works are in fact 3D.

We are pretty sure Aria's works could easily be mistaken for optical illusions as they are incredibly realistic and accurate when compared to their real-life counterparts. The artist usually does drawings depicting soda drinks, packaged food, and even in some cases real animals such as spiders, fish, and even octopuses. Surprisingly all of the drawings are done only using paper and colored pencils.

This is not a picture of the drawing, right? This whole image is the drawing (table top, background), right?

TRIGGER WARNING: There's a humongous, very real-looking drawing of a spider a few posts down.

When we think of 3D art, the most common form that springs to mind is the incredible chalk art which uses mathematical perspective and artistic skill to brighten sidewalks. However, overall 3D street art takes many forms, just like in Aria's case. So Pandas, let's take a look at the incredible variety of 3D drawings made by this Japanese artist.

Amazing! Just the gradient of color in the shadow is outrageously accurate!

I've drawn a shoe before and it wasn't easy and mine was only in pencil so I can't imagine how hard full color must've been

This is clearly a drawing (as it is the same skill level as most of the drawings), but I'm very sceptical about the other soda cans above...

That butter and syrup are too perfect. This is the only one I'd even question though, these are amazing. How do I get real life pancakes to look that delicious?

I like that he showed this work in progress. Makes it all the more mind blowing how much talent he has.
