Below there are single-colour works, there are bright pieces, and there is art\u00a0done on vintage documentation. There are people, animals and patterns. There really is a bit of everything. I hope you enjoy this selection of ballpoint creativity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Juan Francisco Casas<\/h2>\n<p>Juan is a Spanish artist as well as a photographer and a poet. He creates his art by taking photographs and then drawing them in ballpoint pen at a later date. The result is fun, action scenes which often involve partying and he is rather popular for his prolific portrayal of naked females!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1771\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Juan-Francisco-Casas-Ballpoint-Pen-Art-Girl.jpg\" alt=\"OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA\" width=\"713\" height=\"469\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1772\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Juan-Francisco-Casas-Ballpoint-Pen-Art.jpg\" alt=\"Juan-Francisco-Casas-Ballpoint-Pen-Art\" width=\"451\" height=\"567\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Jack Dillhunt<\/h2>\n<p>Jack is an American artist who started his career drawing in ballpoint pen on bed sheets! He has since experimented with many mediums, and written a novel, so it certainly can&#8217;t be said that he doesn&#8217;t embrace change or a challange! The example of his work below is a &#8216;digitised&#8217; ballpoint piece.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1773\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Jack-Dillhunt-Ballpoint-Pen-Art-Digitised.jpg\" alt=\"Jack-Dillhunt-Ballpoint-Pen-Art-Digitised\" width=\"745\" height=\"527\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Ler Huang<\/h2>\n<p>Ler is a Taiwanese artist whose ballpoint drawings are often colourful and fashion-related, with headshots and full length portrayals\u00a0of female models featuring strongly. Her more recent work involves some fun geometric experimentation, as you can see below.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1774\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ler-Huang-Ballpoint-Pen-Art.jpg\" alt=\"Ler-Huang-Ballpoint-Pen-Art\" width=\"765\" height=\"641\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1775\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ler-Huang-Ballpoint-Pen-Art2.jpg\" alt=\"Ler-Huang-Ballpoint-Pen-Art2\" width=\"940\" height=\"334\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Helena Hauss<\/h2>\n<p>Helena is a Paris-based artist who creates large pieces of art; always full of detail and always drawn in ballpoint pen. She uses a lot of blue and red ink together with splashes of black and yellow, which I feel gives her work a subtle comic book feeling when combined with the exciting subject matters she chooses.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1776\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Helena-Hauss-Ballpoint-Pen-Art-Floor.jpg\" alt=\"Helena-Hauss-Ballpoint-Pen-Art-Floor\" width=\"590\" height=\"590\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Chris R. Wright<\/h2>\n<p>Chris is an actor and illustrator who creates a huge variety of artwork, which he refers to as his \u2018brawls\u2019. These vary from fun human caricatures to serious commissioned pet portraits, and everything in-between. Chris seems capable of drawing anything in ballpoint, and in any style!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1777\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Chris-R-Wright-Ballpoint-Pen-Art.jpg\" alt=\"Chris-R-Wright-Ballpoint-Pen-Art\" width=\"378\" height=\"378\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1778\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Chris-R-Wright-Ballpoint-Pen-Art2.jpg\" alt=\"Chris-R-Wright-Ballpoint-Pen-Art2\" width=\"378\" height=\"378\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Mark Powell<\/h2>\n<p>Mark is a Yorkshire artist who specialises in producing ballpoint pen artwork on vintage documents and envelopes, to bring some history to his work. His subjects are often older people\u2019s faces and birds, which seem to work perfectly with the paper they are drawn on.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1779\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mark-Powell-Ballpoint-Pen-Art.jpg\" alt=\"Mark-Powell-Ballpoint-Pen-Art\" width=\"700\" height=\"734\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1780\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mark-Powell-Ballpoint-Pen-Art2.jpg\" alt=\"Mark-Powell-Ballpoint-Pen-Art2\" width=\"594\" height=\"645\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Sarah Esteje<\/h2>\n<p>Sarah is a French illustrator and photographer, who draws a broad range of subjects in ballpoint; mostly in blue, but also in other colours too. Her passion for photography shows through in her beautifully photo-realistic artwork.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1781\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sarah-Esteje-Ballpoint-Pen-Art.jpg\" alt=\"Sarah-Esteje-Ballpoint-Pen-Art\" width=\"840\" height=\"650\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1782\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sarah-Esteje-Ballpoint-Pen-Art2.jpg\" alt=\"Sarah-Esteje-Ballpoint-Pen-Art2\" width=\"840\" height=\"700\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Carine Brancowitz<\/h2>\n<p>French artist Carine is happiest working in ballpoint pens and pencils. She draws from life and photographs, and her favourite subject is people &#8211; although I&#8217;ve spotted quite a few cats in her work too! Her drawings are full of life and colour.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1783\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Carine-Brancowitz-Ballpoint-Pen-Art.jpg\" alt=\"Carine-Brancowitz-Ballpoint-Pen-Art\" width=\"667\" height=\"570\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1784\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Carine-Brancowitz-Ballpoint-Pen-Art2.jpg\" alt=\"Carine-Brancowitz-Ballpoint-Pen-Art2\" width=\"646\" height=\"496\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Johannes Siemensmeyer<\/h2>\n<p>Johannes is a German artist. He enjoys working in ballpoint pen and also fineliner. There is minimal colour in his work and he likes to portray people. His angular approach is very unique.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1785\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepencompany.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Johannes-Siemensmeyer-Ballpoint-Pen-Art.jpg\" alt=\"Johannes-Siemensmeyer-Ballpoint-Pen-Art\" width=\"700\" height=\"982\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Scott Mackie<\/h2>\n<p>Scott is a\u00a0Scottish\u00a0artist who works in ballpoint pen on antique documents, with a variety of subjects.
