A Nigerian pencil artist has gained the attention of Kevin Hart via Twitter, and now he's about to bank in heavy.

Eli Waduba Yusuf, a hyperrealism pencil artist from Nigeria, recently went viral on Twitter for his impressive artwork. And he got it by asking for what he wanted.

On Monday, the artist tweeted to his nearly 7,000 Twitter followers by humbly introducing himself, showing off one of his new drawings and shouting out his inspiration, Arinze Stanley.

"Am a hyperrealism PENCIL Artist, I hope to become like @Harinzeyart," he posted. "Please Retweet, let @KevinHart4real see it, thank you."

The image was a hyperrealist drawing of one of Kevin Hart's most famous photos. The artist hoped Hart would see it and asked his followers to tag him so that he would.
