Prisoners do this also. I had a friend her dad was in prison for life. Don't ask why. But he would send her a lot of drawings with ball point pens. Just like this one. Very very amazing.
Literally, outstanding pen(wo)manship. I just do not understand the "38" dislikes - it's not even whether it is to (their) taste, the artwork, alone, is superlative. The cross-hatching technique is very accomplished - the lines are clean & sharp - what's not to like for this level of artisan finesse ? Fantastique !! :D
I can't sketch a portrait with HB pencils without making tons of errors and here, you completed a super amazing one with a freaking pen. Wowwwwwwww and not forgetting the blending you did with the lighter shades. Dayummmm
That was simply mind blowing to see the simplicity and the correctness and the shadows and oh my God the penmanship of that pen working on that paper. I am mind blown.❤❤❤
I really enjoyed watching you perform such brillant control ! I myself do alot of the very same kind of technique but not at your level. My skill devoloped because I never had a pencil close by ,but always managed to have a pen. So I used that in lieu of the pencil. I would be given free pens and devloped a rather large assortment,. Bic blues were my favorite, as well especially the fine points. Being military for 18 years, I also collected skillcraft pens as well. lol You have an eye for both shading and clean work from what I was able to observe. Bic's can smudge if you aren't careful! Keep focus on your talent and let life do what its got to do ....Luck and passion will do the rest! It was a pleasure watching you work! Eap
Insane. Amazing work. I tried out sketching with a ball point pen as I get bored at work. I simply can't work out how to get the light and dark effect. I probably require years of practice to even get close to the type of effect you are able to achieve.
This art form is very common in prison here in the States. Though not many possess this level of skill, there are many pen artists. I only knew of two who could produce on this level.
