Who Needs A Camera…

July 27th, 2009

…when you can draw this well.  Juan Francisco Casas is an amazing artist who draws super realistic images using a blue ball point pen. Oh, and hit the jump to see the scale of his work!

    what an amazing talent!
    its really hard to get that kind of detail with just a pen (he must’ve gone through so many!)

    @ fattybangbang funny! but correct me if i’m wrong chuck close didnt use pen to create his works

    Wowzzzers :!:

    I know, by nature, we r all artist within our own trades but, I am just flabbergasted at how the human eye could be so keen and meticulous at fabricating realism into sometin’ like this…to this degree n scale. I admire how Juan Francisco Casas accentuates the barren sensuality and confidence of a women’s canvas in an aesthetic rendezvous between her mind, body, and aura. This piece does an awesome job @ artistically unraveling a sculpture of liberty while sufficiently alluding to the realistic illustrations of human emotion…n darn near impeccably n flawlessly mocks the ravishing juxtapositions of art and life down to a “T”.
    Awesome.Awesome.Awesome!
