I’m presenting BallPoint Pen Art or drawings to this world we all live within. The materials posted are facts pertaining to a pen system that out sells all others throughout history. Hundreds of billions of ballpoint pens have been sold worldwide and consequently are being used for drawing as well as writing.

Pen and Ink was around thousands of years before oils or other mediums used in art. Pen & Ink represents the first major art medium to hit the world or mankind's history. Pens have shaped our society in every aspect not just the limited fine art community. Pens produce the longest flowing lines in history as well as the subtlest graphic lines.

All early books, manuscripts, the Bible and many other things were produced with a pen system. No art medium in history has that record or impact on society throughout all of mankind’s history and pretending so is just plain ignorance at work. People pretending otherwise, ignoring history or facts recorded for the past four thousand years are just very limited in the thinking department.
