Samuel Silva, a.k.a VianaArts is a master of the ballpoint pen. Can you believe the following images were done in that medium alone?
As I’ve said before, I do appreciate some well done hyper-realism.
There are some great creations that are not exactly from everyday life, too.

The picture of the Irish maiden is beautiful. A girl literally made of beautiful colors. And the one green eye is so beautiful it makes it painfully playful that we can’t see the other.
I agree. She is so lovely!
Wow, way to raise the bar in my sketchbook. No longer will I think, well, I would do more, but I’m just using a ball-point pen today… I had to read his Q&A on the red-head before I could believe his “simple” process. Wow.
I don’t even keep a sketchbook…my doodles could never compare with a fraction of these masterpieces!
The girl is utterly mesmerizing-wow!
I know! I could not look away from this drawing when I first saw it!
