    Default Never denigrate ballpoint pens EVER again!

    There's not much love for ballpoint pens on this forum. But take a look at this drawing by Hungarian artist 22Zitty22, on the DeviantArt site.

    Done in ballpoint pen, it's beyond incredible! She has some stunning works on the site - take a look ........

    I would have to credit the artist more than the pen. It almost looks like a photo doesn't it? Thanks for sharing.

    I had to look twice to see that it isn't taken by a camera. Truly amazing!

    Some artists can use almost any instrument to create something beautiful. However, this does not mean that I will stop denigrating ballpoint pens!

    Well I have gone on the record before to say that I use ballpoint pens occasionally. As well as most other types of writing instrument. I don't get the antipathy. The more the merrier I say.

    I'm with the Dr.

    While the drawing is very impressive, even beyond incredible as you state, I reserve the right to denigrate ball points.

    The satisfaction of being right I suppose. Or knowing how predictable we are.

    Fantastic drawing and skill.
