Mikel Arteta - Pen Drawing

Hello everyone!

Today, I want to share with you my new art work. It's a random portrait drawing of a Mikel Arteta, the current manager of an English Football club, Arsenal FC.

Ever since he joined the Gunners, they have been a competitive team - rising from Europa league regulars to Champions league contenders and among Premier league favorites.

Unfortunately, they were eliminate yesterday with 1:0 by Bayern Munich after they played out a 2:2 in the first leg. They also lost by 2:0 to Aston Villa over the weekend and missed out the first spot to Man City.

It is likely they are going to go title less this year once again after unfavorable week they've had. However, the great work of Arteta cannot be undermined.

The portrait was done with a blue ballpoint pen on a cardboard paper. I used scribble technique to create this piece. The image being used as reference for this drawing was obtained from here.

Below are my step-by-step processes:

Very nice drawing man.
Arsenal is the only team that will strive hard, beat big and strong teams but when it almost over they start messing up and loss the strong grip they've held all season long. I'm not even an Arsenal fan but yet I find it so annoying, I can't really tell what their problem is.

Yeah, they are good but they always loose concentration towards the end of the season.

Hello @maxwellmarcusart. Nice pen shading. The concept at Pinterest also applies to Facebook. If you posted your personal photos and artwork to those sites, would you want others to copy and use them without your permission? Just placing a link to the image doesn't guarantee it's free to use, remember. Perhaps this image has a different copyright usage since the person you mention is a public figure and placed his photo on Facebook. Did you check first?

I don't use Facebook, so I can't check.

Also, if you use an image as reference and it's free to use, then place the image and its link in your post so that your readers can see how well your interpretation looks compared to the real photo. Just like you do in Splinterlands and Holorizing.

Take care.
