Here is "THE TEMPLE".... about 20x24 inches. It's a free hand pen and ink drawing I did loosely based on a Roman style ruin in Turkey I once saw a picture of. It took around four hundred hours to do with a Rapidograph drafting pen that draws a line about the width of a human hair. Just stippling (dots), no preliminary sketch, no ruler (not a straight line in the whole thing), just one tiny dot after another.... and about a quarter pound of good bud!

I suppose you didn't count how many dots were used. :P

Seriously, great work. :)
