David Oliveira

Portuguese artist David Oliveira's incredible large-scale, 3-D wire sculptures look like they were pulled directly from a sketchbook and into the gallery. I love how much feeling comes across in these with little more than a few well-placed lines in space.

There's always something incredibly personal and fascinating about looking through an artist's sketchbooks. Even more than some of the finished work, I'm always excited to get these rare looks at half-thought out ideas, doodles and observations. Thank you, Dadu Shin, for satisfying my curiosity.

Rod Luff

Is it just me, or do you think that there's some serious magic hiding out in Sydney-based artist and illustrator Rod Luff's sketchbook?
