After comparing his drawings and the originial pictures in TinEye I'll reserve my opinion of them.

Party pooper! Just kidding. My instincts were to not believe it was humanly possible to do something so incredibly realistic

That photo doesn't mean anything. Of course he had to have some inspiration, but check the link, he's legit. Whether they are remakes of already-taken pictures or not, he's not faking it with the pencil.

I googled "paul cadden art real?" and there was nothing that came up as being "suspect" about him

I went to the link and all I can say is this opens up a whole new area of art I was unfamiliar with. I clicked on several of the links under "inspiration" and some of the hyper realistic paintings are almost mind numbing as to their realism.
