These incredible images are created using a Bic Biro.
Amazing,,, I know! You can also find a collection of awesome paintings on his site too.
Its unbelievable to see drawings so amazing using a medium so simple and often taken for granted
(I loose more Biro's than I actually use).
I read in one of the press write ups on his page that his drawings often take over a month to complete, and are based on private party snaps and I think a few of the images would make you question exactly what kind of private parties the artist has been hosting?
The artist behind these works is Juan
Francisco Casas Ruiz,
and here is a bit of his Biography from his website;
(You should take a look on his site and see the extensive list of awards, and exhibitions and stuff this guy has had. Pretty incredible!,,,,,,,don't forget to look at his paintings too)
