Most famously known for this Pencil vs Camera series, Ben is working on a couple of different projects as well. One of the projects is titled “Digital Circlism,” which is a modern artistic expression– a mix of Pop art and Pointillism. It is made with digital tools usually featuring celebrities made of thousands of flat circles on a black background.
