Here's a new perspective of art in the making: a pen's perspective.

The methodical motions of the pen, whether it be in strokes or circles, is an interesting view as the artist usually only sees a stationary piece of paper.

Check out the hypnotic motions here (Note: It's a nearly 10 minute video of with much of the same thing, so you don't need to watch much to get the idea):

One commenter wonders how the camera was mounted on the pen, while another suggests it wasn't necessarily on the pen but used a motion-tracker to capture the effect.
