Juan Berrio’s Sketchbook of Overheard Conversations

f090926cw

Spanish cartoonist Juan Berrio (previously on Drawn!) has started a sketchbook for overheard snippets of conversations. He’s sharing the images via a blog called cuaderno de frases encontradas, which I clumsily computer-translated as notebook of found phrases.

I don’t speak Spanish, so I can’t fully appreciate the actual context of the sketchbook, but I think you’ll agree that drawings and bold, confident inking like this is universal:

Here’s a fun video of Juan making a sort of diorama of an apartment building out of a Moleskine notebook:
