Description
Video timelapse: [link]Paul David Hewson, known by his stage name Bono, is an Irish singer, musician, and humanitarian best known for being the main vocalist of the Dublin-based rock band U2. Bono was born and raised in Dublin, Ireland, and attended Mount Temple Comprehensive School where he met his future wife, Alison Stewart, and the future members of U2. Bono writes almost all U2 lyrics, often using political, social, and religious themes. During their early years, Bono's lyrics contributed to U2's rebellious and spiritual tone. As the band matured, his lyrics became inspired more by personal experiences shared with members of U2.

I'm no artist, and I don't pretend that I will ever become one. This masterpiece is what every artist would aspire to do. The details are impeccable, the emotion on her face sketched to perfection, the shadows are perfect.
My favorite part has to be the water flowing down her face and hair. The little trickles of water all over the place add a dimension to this image that I have never seen in a sketch before. The level of thought required to process this in your mind while drawing, is blowing my mind!
I still need to look at it over and over again to believe that this is not a picture, and indeed a piece of art. Yet, I still am unable to do so. This is hands down one of the finest pieces of artwork I've ever come across in my life. Bravo sir, bravo!

Hello Vicky, I appreciate very much your kindness but I think by reading your words that you are talking about the Wet piece that is the one with a girl with water flowing down her face not this piece from Bono from U2 that has no water

It is amazing the photo realism you bring to black and white drawings. On a side note I have been a fan of this man for 30 years now (sigh, getting so old) and this just takes my breath away. I continue to be stunned by your work.

I would really like to know who drew these pics and if they are all really drawn from hand. I am new on deviant and consider myself to be s fairly good artist but I am limited on resources. I think this artist is great if they are for real. I'm SUPERSHARK82

Your work is the top gun of realism. I love when a project makes that crossover where realism is mistaken as an actual photograph! You've mastered everything! Applying this to football, since you won the superbowl what do you do next? Very, very, very, very awesome work!!!
