Description
This was my resurgence back into my art. It was during exams and I just started drawing with one of those bic ball point pens and ended up filling the page. I liked it so I began working in this style for the past year. I used to draw very realistic type drawings but have come to enjoy the release of just allowing my creativity to flow onto the page in this way.I like the face over on the right side, with the star as the hair, the 2 eyes and then the watch band as the slightly opened mouth with the top lip above it...
I have come to love the purity of black and white pen and ink -- once the pen touches the paper that mark is there forever. No erasing. No screwing up. Pure.

I love this style. I have done psychedelics in the past and this totally captures the after-mood. It has a lot of energy.

psychedelics are what appeals to me the most because it allows my imagination to release itself onto the page....there is no end to the possibilities. glad you like it.

thanks for all your nice comments, i appreciate it....and to answer your question, lets just say that it takes a hell of a long time on each piece to get it perfect and make sure you dont screw up, so i just dont rush myself and do it right the first time

Looks like it'd take a long time to complete any of your work, perfectly or not. hehe.

haha, true enough....i'd say i spend a minimum of 30 hours on each drawing that i do. Luckily i have a horrible sense of time so i can sit and draw for 8 hours straight and enjoy every second.

Wow! I wish I had that sort of patience!

Its a blessing and a curse....on one side i can draw forever and never get bored, but on the other side no sense of time doesnt really help much in meeting deadlines and being on time places....oh well, at least i'm aware of the flip side of the coin so i can compensate for it

Hurm. Okay, let me think. The small guitar, with its incessant noise, annoys the octopus who urgently reaches towards the sun, which is already angry because a flame is already challenging it, and the hand that holds it is slightly alarmed by the match beginning to burn out, so a man named Rob Gregory starts to beat on a drum to shut them all up.

hahaha -- you forgot to incorporate Father Time over there on the right side (two eyes, nose comes down between them, then the top lip and the slightly opened mouth made by the watch band.....)
