Ballpoint pen art was born recently as an independent direction. This trend is gaining popularity and as the movement of impressionism at the time, ballpoint pen is rapidly gaining the momentum now.

Many erroneously believe that the work in ballpoint pen is not durable, yet we know of many old manuscripts that survived to our days.

I am a professional artist specializing in graphics and ballpoint pen art. I worked in just about every medium you can think of, but I was always drawn to my childhood hobby of drawing with a basic ballpoint pen. In order to create a wonderful piece of art, one doesn’t need a very extensive workshop or spend a lot of money on the art supplies. With a basic ballpoint pen and a sheet of paper you can create a masterpiece.

Lovely to see more of your work. I see your point about durability but I wondered if you have to use some sort of fixative when you have finished?

I'd like to see these in the flesh; up close; live. They are so amazingly life-like.

Such incredibly beautiful and detailed drawings! I've been drawing for 60 of my 64 years, and have never achieved such wonderful expertise as this. Truly splendid work.
