In my second A2 drawing (42 x 59.4 cm / 16.5 x 23.4 inches), I depicted a section of a previous drawing, Bitcoin - Human Perfection, in large format and detail:
The main reason for this was, on the one hand, the scene of a mother with her child, which I find quite lovely in combination with Bitcoin, and on the other hand, my preference for drawing people and human gestures, facial expressions, and proportions in a vivid manner, which is sometimes among the most difficult and time-consuming work— yet also among the most stunning, in my opinion.
To create a unique visual depth once again, I used a wide repertoire of different pencils, brushes, and other tools. I am particularly pleased with the spatial effect and plasticity of this work, and the many small gems related to Bitcoin, such as Jerome Powell, President of the Federal Reserve Bank, sitting at the running money printer, or the hidden piece of Bitcoin pizza, fit in exceptionally well.
A careful browse through the drawing reveals a few more details. Have fun discovering them!
Drawn with 12 different pencils and two mechanical pencil leads, a set square, brush, and electric eraser.
