Kazuki Takamatsu creates some of the most unusual and quietly contemplative black and white illustrations I have seen in a very long time. They are like a frozen moment from a strange dream and each one is wildly gorgeous.

Mitch Dobrowner is a landscape photographer who has some absolutely gorgeous black and white imagery in his portfolio. The images are almost alien in their serene and subtle contrasts. He has somehow been able to capture the quiet stoicism of nature in a contemplative way that will make you want to get out from behind your computer and go explore. He also has some urban work that is equally alien and beautiful. It was impossible to choose an image that represents his body of work. I swear that every last image is a work of art. Serious talent and an amazing and wondrous eye.

Blurry, brooding and retro-inspired imagery fills the portfolio of young photographer Snjezana Josipovic.

Alexsander Kostenko has some really well executed and expressive black and white character illustration work in his Behance-folio. Really great line work.

Wow, I don’t know how I could have missed or have never heard of Josh Vanover (Spaceknuckle) before but his work in black and white is fantastic. I was immediately inspired by it to go out and create something.
That skateboard deck is haute.
Thank you so much for the link Alisha.

Back in August I uploaded Wallspankers Issue 4. The response was incredible. In one week, traffic and dowloads exceeded my hosting package (750G) so I bought another 750G (the largest package available through NetworkSolutions. They call it “Pro”. Haha!). Sure enough, one week later, WS blew the roof off again. So again, I threw more money at my host to keep the site and high-res Issues 1-4 live. And again, we blew the doors clear off. It hurt so good… but I had to lay off, so I pulled down Issue 1-3. I’ve just now re-released the full collection at print resolution. Go take advantage of your office Xerox and get busy in the streets!
