This has nice detail, texture, and contrast going for it. I think the skin tones are particularly warm.

    well dear unlike those overprice pens like copic..sharpie and bic doesnt have skin tones nor blender. us sharpie artist r like the marines..overcome, adapt, improvise..the skin tone has 6 colors blended..oh i betcha u didnt know that a sharpie pen colors can be blended. some colors i can mix to create a different blend. took me 40 years of working with sharpie to self teach myself these lil tricks..wink. thanks for the good review!

This is Freaking Awesome MK. You should be making bank on your posters by now. You are so FAR out of the league of artist. Words can't describe the phenomenal details and realism of your work. A true artist, with a one of kind marker jammin style. Just a note, I love the country song by your women, "Taylor Swift", my man,"Keith Urban" and Tim Mcgraw. Keith can rock a Guitar, and Taylor sings like a hummingbird. :)PD

Comment from Dick Lee Shia


A meticulous rendition of a guitarist rocker extra ordinaire.
The details on the magician's cap,
leather jacket, hair curls and backdrop is a tedious art stroke.
Even the light blue highlight on the shiny Mother of Pearl shell embedded as fret indicator is still given importance.
Tell me if there's another reviewer who notices this and I'll give you a guitar made in the Philippines! LoL!
The blue wall is in stark complementary to the orange skin tone.
Again, the pointillist strokes are always an added bonus signature trademark of an MKF art piece.

If there was ever any doubt that you are the Master of the Sharpie then here's the one that will surely give you that title Mark! This is just fabulous in every respect. Amazing attention to detail - I'm loving the reflections in the sunglasses - and that hair - wow! Really fine work my friend.

You are my hero, how do you produce your images so fast. All of them are great, you have a gift to transfer just that THING in your porters that make it real and unmistakable transparent for your viewer.

Comment from TLake


He looks like Slash and your work is very good. I really like the reflection in the sunglasses and the detail to make his hat so shimmery.
