Crankshaft's Sketchbook

Yeah, I like those too. They're minimalist but still very expressive.

I also find those larger line drawings to be interesting to look at. The varied line weight creates some lovely rhythms to guide your focus in and around the images.

Lots of good stuff there, crank. That's first image has some great compositional framing and the angled shafts of light contrast perfectly against the surrounding silhouette.

Also I find that second post interesting. If you ignore the car, the other three line drawings almost fit together to make a single piece work and it makes me think of those old Chinese landscape paintings that are done on narrow vertical scrolls and use perspective in lively and unexpected ways.
