im amazed that doing ink art goes a long way i really like this one with all the colors that make up this one, iv just started to use ink but with oil pastels to give that effect,, wow

Beautiful work, I admire your patience and attention to detail!

John Green 27 Oct 2007

and to think I have been using a ballpoint only for sketch work-ups for 35 years.. these are quite amazing. I have painted "the Duke" twice in oils and find him still a facinating subject.

Shannon Fleury 23 Oct 2007

You do amazing work! in pen?? Wow, I like his expression!

I like the expression, though the line of his bottom lip look a little hard/sharp, other than that a great peace. As an artist it is only my interpretation, or constructive ctiticism and in no way should be taken in a bad light. Your work is of a very high calibre and definately worth a look

Chris Armand 30 Jul 2007

Maureen Middleton 13 Nov 2006

That is absolutely great Jerry. I don't know how you create such a good image from ballpoints but you certainly do.

Cherie Lambiase 05 Nov 2006

The color and intensity of his expression describes to me one of many tragedies impening doom. Sometimes a soul is haunted by its own desire to please so many others it looses its' way. Loosing one's self. This would be the best way I describe him. Cherie

reisa peters 03 Nov 2006

Jerry. It is a wonderful style you've developed. I wish I could see this up close to understand how you acheived the blending with a ball point pen. Great patience I suspect?
