Artist Raymond Cicin collected discarded ballpoint pens and spent more than a year creating this enormous and highly-detailed octopus drawing.
The octopus in question, an octopus vulgaris (common octopus), was inspired by an octopus lithograph from Ernst Von Haeckel (the yellow picture), a german biologist who died in 1919.
This drawing isn’t the only one – he has created other amazing artwork as well using nothing but these commonplace, lowly pens. It just goes to show that it’s often the artist, not the tool!
His official site is here for the curious.
