This semester I studied an artist called Ben Heine. I discovered this guy though a video that was shared to me from my friend. He has discovered many types of styles and ways to draw though out the years. His Pencil vs. Camera takes the original photo and places a pencil sketch over top. This changes the original photo to something surreal. His digital circulism is a combination of Pop art and Pointillism. Having smaller concentrations of circles leads to a darker area, and larger circles are lighter areas. He went from a nine to five job, and then became a professional artist. One of my favorite artist to date and I will definitely try to imitate some of his work in the future.
