    How does he do it?

    That’s the puzzling question anyone who sees one of celebrated artist Kelvin Okafor’s incredible drawings asks themselves.

    The 27-year-old Londoner’s jaw-dropping portraits are made with black charcoal and pencils.

    But they’re so life-like it looks like his subjects have been photographed.

    Here, in a video posted on Kelvin’s YouTube channel, we get a fascinating insight into how he drew popstar Adele.

    Watch as he turns a blank piece of paper into a stunning portrait of the Rolling in the Deep star.
