Street Art - Awesome Wall Portrait

Hello lovely Hiveans !

Today I have another entry for the Street Art Community .. This time it is about this awesome wall portrait here .. I hope you like it ^^

The Wall Portrait

When I went around the city lately, I came along this wall portrait here. It directly caught my eye and I was fascinating about how professionally made it looked.

Contest to most Street Art that I discovered so fast, the artist seemed to use his real name to sign the wall portrait. You can find the signature Martin Bender at the top left corner. In addition, the time of the painting is stated in the to right corner, the year 2020.

If you look closer onto the portrait, it can't be seen that the artist mostly used lines while staying, which created the structure and contours of the whole picture. I am not an expert in drawing, but the arrangement of all these lines just created this awesome deep structure and looks really realistic. I really like this drawing style a lot now, hehe

The artist seemed to be extremely skilled. Even the eyes under the glasses look really well represented. The beard, which was using the line technique especially, looks really really realistic and it fascinating me a lot. Also it consists of probably several hundred lines, it looks so natural overall. This is also true for the hair that can be seen partially in many places.

More Art by the Artist

As I was quite fascinating, I looked up the artist in them internet and found more art by him. It seems that he is doing these wall portrait quite a lot. He is living in a neighbour city of mine and uses to tag in all the close by cities. The following pictures her, I found on his webpages on Pinterest and his own website. Same style and as awesome as the other one, but look for yourself ^^
