About the idea

Some time ago I had to make a presentation for school about what art inspires me. This one for example really inspires me:
[link] When I read some more about the art of this artist I found out to my big surprise that his drawings are all made with ballpoints. I was pretty stunned, I never knew these kind of results where possible with ballpoints.

So I wanted to try it to, and bought myself some ballpoints. ( For some reason I can’t find a yellow ballpoint though. )

I gave it a try on making a psychedelic drawing, and I think I pulled it off rather well.

( I’m actually really pleased about it, I could see it already as a big poster in my room )

About this drawing
It was quite a lot work to make this drawing, this is mostly because I really like smooth colouring, and to make ballpoint colouring smooth you need A LOT layers.

Somewhere in the future I would like to make a big drawing with ballpoints.
( This one was A4 I would like to give it a try on A3 which is 2 times bigger. )

( BTW the colours in the original version are way better then those on screen )
