Pencil Vs Camera - 58by `BenHeine

Traditional Art / Mixed Media / Emotional

_________________________________________________

No matter the reasons or the circumstances,
I love you today more than yesterday!

A quick sketch I made while I was in Spain some time ago.
That dog was standing there, alone, looking at me. So cute.
I thought he needed some good company...

If you wish you can view a random detail here

The above picture has been shot with the Samsung NX11

>>> Review from THE TELEGRAPH for this picture: A cat
seems to snuggle up to a dog in this picture from the Pencil Vs
Camera series by Belgian artist Ben Heine. The 28-year-old takes
colourful photographs of people or landscapes but covers a part of
the image with a pencil sketch. The sketch adds a bizarre twist to
the picture and acts "like a magic door to a fantasy and surrealistic
world" (The Telegraph, Dec. 2011).

>>> Review from THE SUN for this picture: "Dog's life ... cat
cuddles up to pooch" (The Sun, Dec. 2011)

Update: See THIS VIDEO showing some 18 Pencil Vs Camera
images in progress (with a small animation and original music).

Love Is...

A poem by Peter S. Quinn

Love is a love today
Like before and without
Feelings gestured and play
That’s what love’s about
Nothing to do with playing
It’s just you and me
Forever in a heart staying
With every its opportunity

Love is not gone away
Like some of a longing
It’s in your heart to stay
Never its own abandoning
Ties to its circumstances
Giving its standing a thought
Each of its moments enhances
Blossoms of Forget-Me-Not

Love is a love like May
Spring in its freshest mood
All that makes life okay
Time of each life and food
Every in its music of own
Growing in wisdom more
All that can never be shown
That is what love stands for

Well, holy ballsacks. Let me just say that you have envisioned what could have happened to this doggy is just perfectly sublime. I mean, it is the pure essence of life! A cat falling in love with a dog. I believe that possible interbreeding with these two fabulous species puts a really interesting twist and plot to this sketch+photo combo. Hell, I almost jacked off to the thought of it. But I mean, it is what boils down to what we humans really are: sexually hungry creatures wanting nothing more than to stick their weiners into a hole and vice versa. Brrrrr... your artwork has left me absolutely stunned! All in all, I believe you have captured the nature and mind of every human alive and dead (whether you did it intentionally or unintentionally). Sir, I applaud you for your masterpiece!

What do you think?

This is an amazing artwork! very inspiring and different. the fact that this is an art technique that is different from all the others makes it even more amazing. Mixing both photography and traditional medium such as pencil sketching is a very creative idea. It is out of the box, original, and eye opening. It can people to come up with their own art technique. This piece just shows that being different and original has its own great things. Leading a whole new path can be a great experience for an artists and coming up with different techniques can sometimes be challenging, this shows that great artists come up with their own way of creating artworks.
