WIP Hand I've been working on this drawing for months. When I started it I don't even know that in the meantime I will be moving three thousand kilometers east of my hometown Saskatoon to Toronto. Spring, summer, fall and now winter and I'm still working on it. There have been sometimes of struggling but at this moment I just give you up and let me flow by the work. Have you ever struggled with your work? #wip #workinprogress #worldofbicpen #penart #ballpointpenart #bic #biro #birodrawing #ballpointpen #ballpoint #hand #drawingonpaper #color #colorpen #figurativeart #figuredrawing #photorrealism #hyperrealism #canadianart #canadianartist #toronto #torontoartist #picoftheday #drawinghands (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7lJ1vpFgxK/?igshid=f4etgko5kcad

WIP I haven't been at home during the last two weeks so I haven't had the opportunity to work on this drawing until now. Very little advance in this month. #wip #workinprogress #worldofbicpen #drawingprocess #drawing #penartist #pen #colorpen #portrait #figurativeart #figuredrawing #picoftheday #bicpen #biro #ballpointpen #ballpointpenart #artoninstagram #art #artgallery #artistsoninstagram #artist #canadianartist #canadianart #yxeart #yxe #saskatoon #saskatchewan #canada #mexicanartist #mexico #hyperrealism #hiperrealismo (at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2oiJfkHYjQ/?igshid=1u94uzb77mo1w

WIP I'm working on the hair, finishing the left side and getting a darker tone and it's taking more than I think but I'm happy, I'm happy not with the result ( maybe nobody is happy with the result of their own work) but happy with the time invested on it. When I started this I knew it'll be a hard and long process and sometimes I want to quit but when I saw the advance it gives me energy. Have you tried do something for a longer period of time than "normal"? #wip #workinprogress #worldofbicpen #ballpointpenart #ballpointpen #biro #bicpen #bic #drawingprocess #drawing #art #artoninstagram #realism #figuredrawing #figurativeart #photorrealism #hyperrealism #canadianartist #penart #pendrawing #pen #summerjob #time #nationalgirlfriendday #yxeart #yxe #saskatchewan #saskatoon #canada #canadianart #mexicanartist #mexican #mexicanart (at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0500ZWnHcU/?igshid=1o3fe7t3qd5gg

WIP I'm still working on this piece, so many paper so little ballpoint pen. This is about resistance not speed like a Marathon Runner. #drawingprocess #drawing #ballpointpen #ballpointpenart #worldofbicpen #workinprogress #wip #realismo #realism #paper #bicpen #bic #picoftheday #penart #pendrawing #portrait #hyperrealism #canadianartist #canada #canadianart #northamericanart #northamerican #northamerica #yxeart #yxe #saskatoon #saskatchewan #mexico #mexicanartist #mexicocanada #biro #artefigurativo #figurativeart #figuredrawing (at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0ioxjGHEp1/?igshid=wy3wasb7vj8m

Sketching I tried this zebra pen, the line is soft but I feel that sometimes it leaves a trace of ink, that makes the drawing special. That's why always is good to try new things. Now I want to try other colors, maybe red.

WIP It's curious how long is this process, it literally takes hours just for a shadow on the face. I have to be patient with this one because it'll take an eternity. I'll keep posting the advance. #figurativeart #ballpointpen #ballpointpendrawing #worldofbicpen #wip #workinprogress #wife #portrait #colorpen #biro #bicpen #workonpaper #art #artoninstagram #curator #artgallery #hyperrealism #photorealism #canadianartist #canadianart #yxeart #yxe #saskatoon #saskatchewan #canada #mexicanartist #mexico #mexicanart #lefthanded #drawing #sketchbook (at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx6LiXxnPQc/?igshid=14dian6yrb8e9

WIP Half way through It's interesting how it is taking shape layer by layer and how the dimension change when you have to draw with a fine ballpoint pen. #wip #workinprogress #worldofbicpen #sketchbook #sketch #artoninstagram #instagramart #ballpointdrawing #colorportraits #figurativeart #portrait #drawing #doodle #hyperrealism #photorealism #precisionism #ballpoint #yxe #yxeart #saskatoon #saskatchewan #canadianartist #canadianart #canada🇨🇦 #mexicanartist #mexico (at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtLb-9wAv0C/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dglidr6xkvhq

I've got these bic Atlantic pens, they have some unique colors like the brown I'm holding. It helps me with shadows and some effects. . . . . . . . . #bicatlantis #bicatlantispens #worldofbicpen #workinprogress #ballpointdrawing #ballpointpen #ballpointpenart #portrait #portraitdrawing #drawing #realism #hyperrealism #photorealism #precisionism #sketchbook #sketch #figurativeart #yxeart #canadianartist #canadianart #lefthanded #saskatoon #saskatchewan #canada #mexicanartist #mexicanart #mexicocanada #mexico #mexicanos (at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs5aQH8gfeI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xmul58eboibr
