If you love creative artwork, you have to check out Howard Lee.
This talented artist has made a name for himself on Instagram, thanks to his ability to create hyperrealistic drawings of everyday objects.
At first glance, Lee’s drawings look just as real as the object he places next to them for comparison.
Trying to decide which article is real and which is hand-drawn is near-impossible – even when Lee reveals the answer.

It’s hardly surprising that Lee has a quarter of a million Instagram followers. There’s something so fun about looking at his still shots, trying to figure out the truth before Lee shows us.
Let’s take a look at some of Lee’s most impressive drawings. We’ll show you a still shot, which you can use to make your guess (no cheating!). You can then scroll down to the video for the answer.
Which of these ice cream cones is real, and which one is fake?


They both look tempting enough to eat – but only the real ice cream cone would melt!

Were you fooled, or did you get it right? It must be incredibly hard to copy something that needs to be frozen – wonder if he worked from his freezer?
Next up, check out these two salads. Remember, only one is real!


Well, you can’t stick a fork into a “fake salad,” so Lee will show us which one is real.

It’s the salad on the left! Imagine living with this guy – you’d constantly think there was food lying around the house. Although if you found a random salad on the coffee table, you’d probably figure it out pretty fast.
Sorry if you’re getting hungry, but we’re not finished yet! Check out these Lindt chocolate Santas. Which is real?


There’s only one way to find out, in typical Lee style: chop them in half!

If you guessed the Santa on the left, give yourself a pat on the back. But really, there’s no logical way to tell which is the drawing and which is the real thing. You might convince yourself that the slightly less reflective one is the drawing, only for it to actually be the real thing. It’s all just guesswork.
Continuing the “delicious food you want to eat right now theme”, donuts. Which one is legit?


Time for Lee to get out his meat cleaver again. Check out the video below for the answer.

Did you guess it? Nope, us neither.
Last but not least, which dollar bill could you put in your wallet?


Only one of these could actually be used in the store, while the other one is just a drawing (and by “just a drawing”, we mean “the most incredibly detailed drawing we’ve ever seen”).

Imagine the prank you could pull with this! Lee could draw a few of these and leave them lying around in a public place. So many people would bend down to pick them up.
It’s not just comparison artwork that Lee does, either.
If you check out his Instagram account, you’ll find all sorts of cool stuff to keep your brain engaged.
Social media isn’t always the most positive place in the world, but Lee’s account is a good one to follow for a daily dose of fun.
