I mentioned in my blog that I'm trying to eliminate "clutter" from my drawings. Not in an attempt to acquire a style or anything, but to recognize the difference between important and unimportant elements.

I look at a drawing like this and I think of all kinds of needless elements I'd have added - a thumb on Jay's right hand, knuckle wrinkles on Bob's right hand, more tonsil lines on Bob, and so on.
Love the flow of the piece - from Bob's eye piece into his arm and Bob's hat bill pointing at Jay's face - AND the way you cheated the black cord across Bob's black coat by creating some white space (I'd have just turned the cord white through there and called it a day) - all these little things make a "simple" illustration become very interesting.

Or maybe I'm overanalyzing. :)

Nice composition. You are a master of the minimal.

¡Buenísimo señor Silver!
Great, as always. Your knowledge about sintetization and the way you use it is just inspiring.
Each new drawing made by you that I see, is just a new lesson about drawing.
Would you mind to tell us, how long does it takes to to make a work like this logo?
I mean, from the first sketch to the final picture.
¡¡Thanks!!

Each drawing I do can vary, sometimes I hit the mark right away. but other times it isn't flowing out of my hand as easily. I may end up doing up to 15 pages of thumbnails before I am satisfied. it also helps me to show my work to the client and get there advise. that will help let me know if i am going in the right direction and fullfilling there need. once we are settled on an idea, which usually takes the longest, I will then spend anywhere from 1-3 hours tightening it up. this one took maybe about an hour to clean up using a brush pen. I hope that gives you some insight.
