Here’s something quite amazing…this artist, Juan Francisco Casas Ruiz, does this amazing artwork with ballpoint pen. Can you imagine this? Shit in highschool the only thing I drew with ballpoint was some Metallica logos on my bookcovers.

My only problem with this is that it’s so photo-realistic….what’s the point? Let’s just take a photo! Sometimes if I want to see an artists hand-drawn work, I want to see the actual hand-drawn lines like the way Michaelangelo or Da Vinci’s work is often left unfinished so that you see the sketch lines off parts of it.

But HEY, this is still amazing. This guy is the king of ballpoint in my book. (via Scene 360 Illusion)
