It’s impressive that Russian artist Nikolay Yarakhtin can create these wonderful portraits at all, but the fact that he does them in just an hour on the streets of Saint Petersburg is incredible.
Yarakhtin said, “It takes me about an hour to make a portrait. Looking at the excitement of my clients seeing their portraits brings me a lot of joy and inspires me. It gives me creative energy and motivates to become better.”
Take a look at his work.
