Hello steemians, thanks so much for visiting my past arts, today i will like to share my recent ballpoint pen portrait, with few major progress stages of the pen art, i started the drawing with a sketch using a graphite pencil 2B precisely, and applied slight layer of strokes to form a mesh- like surface of the sketch , i started the pen sketch in the mid night and came up with drawing below
Then i followed the same step and applied hatching through out the sketch to create a sketch that shows how the portrait will look like, that resulted in the photo below
With the first layer i was able to come up with a nice sketch with light shades to show how the portrait will look like , and i applied dark shade to the suit and the tie but yet to apply general details to the pen art.
Since the body frame is well detailed, the major part of a portrait is often the facial resemblance, as a pen artist i am always convinced that the best way to do a well detailed pen art sketch is to check and place the pre-detailed art with the right picture used as reference, hence its helps to know the necessary things absent in the pre- detailed art and the picture and with that it will help the artist to take note of those features, below is my comparison
" the picture at the right was taken with canon camera "
The next is the final consideration of the pre- detailed pen art , to make it a detailed pen art , the effect of shadows,light , shades and dark shades must be put into the details, the eye, the nostrils, the nose, the ears , all must be given a critical attention and each ink drop to give a perfection effect.
It is always good to note that no rushing when detailing a pen art portrait , an artist should know that the best ballpoint pen sketches are born out of great patience and focus, here below is a simple pen art portrait
I present to you dear friends a detailed pen art portrait
