A famous line states that a picture paints a thousand words. For the illustrations below, it is definitely more than a thousand! Take a look on a Swedish student's artwork wherein the amount of details can be mind-blowing. Dayum! 

Velvet is a 70x50 cm drawing made with ink and pencil with digital coloring. It depicts a large ceremony hall or theater or something and there's lots of people and things everywhere to look at.

  1. Oh man!!! There aren't enough words in the dictionary to admire this masterpiece, "Velvet." Such kind of work will put the work of even the biggest of artists of the world to shame. The sheer amount of efforts put in can really be seen and felt here. There's a certain hypnotism involved which is hard to explain, when I look at it.
    Take a bow, Erik Svetoft. You deserve every bit of it.
