Drawing one million dots over 90 hours in 3 minutes

YouTube description:

More than a million dots, about 90 hours of work and a couple headaches to complete this piece. Hope you guys will enjoy, let me know what you think of it. Thanks for sharing if you like it. Thanks.

I'm a contemporary French artist (drawer, painter and illustrator) and I'm glad to present a glance at my artistic vision. This particular artwork is probably in the vein of contemporary pop art and pop artists. I'm often asked whether I use watercolor but with this type of paintings, ink is the best material.

Pointillism is amazing and beautiful. Though it seems to screw up peoples wrists. If that's really the case I hope artists will chose another method. You don't need to disable yourself for us.

People break out in applause, while a group of dot matrix printers manage to produce a sound that bears a disturbing resemblance to a golf clap.

It's sad this is so awesome for a human, and utterly banal for a machine.

many many years ago I used to use points to shade technical drawings (instead of my classmates who used watercolor, I was really bad at that, so I figured something else)

After some time it was killing my fingers / wrists so all I did was simply to get a glove and basically attach an adapter for the technical pen to the index finger, so I could dot by simply moving my index finger down (just like tapping), *much* *much* more ergonomic...
