More recently, we talked about such art as pointillism, and paintings by contemporary artists painted with millions of small dots. In this vein, it is a sin not to mention those who first put a dot on the paper, and then turn it into a line. For example, about a talented Russian graphic artist named Vasily Godzh (Vasilj Godzh), which almost fascinated the whole world with its minimalistic black and white illustrations drawn with ordinary lines. Unfortunately, there is little information on the Internet about the artist himself. It is only known that he is a freelancer, lives and works in Moscow, does work for foreign clients and draws "linear pictures" for the soul.
Exactly as in pointillism, in the art of drawing with lines and short strokes, you cannot do without angelic patience and reinforced concrete perseverance. God only knows how much time Vasily spends on the creation of one such picture, which from the outside looks as if it were not a drawing with a ballpoint pen or ink, but an installation made up of white swan feathers.
With lines and dashes, in a peculiar author's manner, Vasily draws both abstract psychedelic ornaments and portraits, both flowers and other plants. Unusual illustrations, in which there are no straight lines, but a clear symmetry can be traced, are admired by illustrators from all over the world. You can see these and other works of our fellow countryman on his website.
