She has perfected her technique to such an extent that her creations seem enviably real.

The creative process of a talented artist CJ Hendry begins with a choice fascinating subject, sometimes creating it herself, photographing it under different light and angles. He then selects the image that reflects the greatest degree of simplicity while displaying the best attributes and presses it onto a large format of high quality, thicker paper. Finally, more than follows 200 hours of sketching, coloring and shading with a simple black pen.
