Macedo is not afraid to experiment with colored pencils either, using them to infuse his art with vibrant hues that truly pop. His specialty is capturing the essence of well-known personalities and depicting them in intricate details that breathe life into their facial features. Trust us, once you take a moment to peruse his collection of portraits below, you'll be blown away by his sheer talent and artistry.
