more best






William Heath Robinson.

Such dynamic use of empty space! This work is filled with energy, tension and humor.

Reminds me of Lisbeth Zwerger, who also is a master of empty space and fantastic composition.
Love these.

Lisbeth is absolutely on my list. The problem is choosing which illustrations to scan!

Wow, this is very cool. Look forward to seeing who's next. I went to the W.H.R. wikopedia link and thought it was funny that his name has become a word in English usage for a complex, implausible contraption. Brilliant illustrator that you just introduced me to. Good pick!
