I'm Starting to see dots everywhere

I started this art project about a month ago. I haven't finished it yet, but I am getting close. The reason it is taking me so long is that I am doing the whole thing in ink, and I figured it would look better if I did it using stippling. I can only do a little at a time or I start to go cross eyed. I am almost done. I'm hoping to have it finished by next week. When it is done I will post it for everyone to see. But I am starting to see dots everywhere!!! I guess you can say that I am starting to get frustrated, but I can't stop until it is finished. I hope it looks good. Oh-well, I'm sure it will turn out fine. I do want to show you a few examples of stippling so you have an idea what it is. Enjoy!


The one on the left is by Mark ( I can't find his last name, sorry); and the one on the right is by Miguel Endara. If you click on the picture it will enlarge it so you can see the stippling effect. I admire what these artists have done with these pictures. It takes a lot of patience.
