At a glimpse, they may look like some pretty sharp photos, but actually, all these pictures are hand-drawn with a humble Bic ballpoint pen! Can you believe this photorealism? The human eye can be fooled so easily!

Spanish artist Juan Francisco Casas, who’s around 33 at the time of writing this, uses up to four 14p ballpoint pens to create his stunningly photorealistic drawings, measuring up to 10ft (3 meters) high. The use of ballpoint pens makes this talented artist’s pen drawings even more peculiar and Juan is evidently a master of the cross-hatching technique too.

Juan’s source of drawing ideas comes from his own photographs of nights out and house parties with his friends, and his works are already a sell-out at exhibitions. His work perfectly replicates the flash portrait photography style of images he captures. You can only imagine how wild his parties are, as half of his cool drawings include girls that forgot to put on their clothes. His subject matter has maybe also played a role in his hyperrealistic art becoming so successful.

So, if you really want to feel bad about your ballpoint pen drawings – have a look at these 25 Incredibly Photorealistic Drawings drawn with a humble BIC PEN.
