There's something very special about the brain of a fine artist.  I am astounded by things that people like Frogwater can produce.

Yea, the guy has some talent and I've always enjoyed his "art".

I really admire a person with that talent . He is an amazing artist.

My 12 yo daughter is developing that talent. Here is a portrait she did of one of her friends.

I have contacted him about some "Tacticool" art. He isn't from the USA and doesn't ship overseas.

I knew a guy in med school who could draw extremely well.  He became a neurosurgeon.

I always wished I was able to draw like that.


Whenever I have watched someone start an amazing drawing or painting like that, I will observe the beginning.  Here I am, thinking I would immediately start outlining an ugly misshaped head and then move to the eyes.  But as these artistic geniuses start, they begin mapping out shapes within the drawing at all points, and build around them.  As they start, I have no idea WTF they're doing and then quickly realize what part of the drawing it is.  I then cannot comprehend how they decide to start at that point, and are able to expand around that point, without putting that starting object at the wrong place.  


I just don't have that vision or talent.  Always wish I did.

Looks like he's drawing ambidextrously, unless one of those images is reversed.

Absolutely outstanding talent!

Looks like he's following in the footsteps of Dick Cramer

I have several posters autographed by Mr. Cramer.

Take this guy's class and you will be "amazing" in no time:  http://www.fivepencilmethod.com/

My wife bought the videos and and can belt out photo-realistic drawings now.  It's unreal.

I dunno, man. I was in art classes for 4 or 5 years and I still come nowhere close to that. I think that part of my brain is missing or something, I'm an accidental Picasso, my hands turn into mittens and god help me when it comes to shading

The first image looks like a b/w photograph.  Talent.  He haz it.

I presume he posed the pictures, or is he ambidextrous?

no smudges, very black "lead" with high "resolution", the precision - this points to some skills, techniques and materials that are highly uncommon.
