You have a very distinctive style with your wrinkles. The detail in the skin is incredible. Awesome work!

People should be proud of their wrinkles as they get old. Wrinkles are earned.

This work is top class, and I've stared at it for some time.

It looks like a photo. What's the good if you make it like a photo?

francoclun Featured By Owner May 27, 2014 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

I'm afraid I'm not able to understand the question. Did you ask why I'm drawing hyperrealism?

QueenLondyn Featured By Owner Jun 6, 2014 Student General Artist

I understand the question. This is the most talented and impressive thing I've ever seen, it's just that some people don't think this is art - like why bother creating what's already there? But I say if you're this great, keep at it! This makes an unique and brilliant hobby!

ghostvillage1 Featured By Owner Mar 6, 2014

ciaoooo francoooo:-D mi stò rincretinendo a capire che tecnica hai usato, che materiali usi?(marca matite ecc..)e per la texture della pelle che metodo usi?

AndrewGreen560 Featured By Owner Feb 18, 2014

Awesome realistic drawing. I feel that drawing older people shows the history of that individual and it can be extremely beautiful.

francoclun Featured By Owner Feb 21, 2014 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

I agree with you, old man and woman are much more intresting than a pretty face. I mean, I like pretty faces, off course, but from the drawing point of view, old faces are more challenging and intresting. Thanks for the kind words
