James Mylne can work wonders with a Bic pen. His drawing of Johannes Vermeer's "The Girl with a Pearl Earring" is amazing in its detail and accuracy. I wouldn't have believed this was done with a pen if there wasn't video proof.
James Mylne drew "The Girl with a Pearl Earring" for the Challenge Bic contest. I don't think Bic expected such an amazing work of art when they issued this challenge asking people to send in notes, doodles, and more drawn with Bic pens. James Mylne has set the standard for pen art. I'd hate to have to follow his act.
