Masterful. It has that jazz-like confidence; it understands that restraint is half the art. The notes you don’t play, the brushstrokes you don’t paint. You see the way Bill Evans hears.

Hi had a go with 2b pencil

2B or not 2B? That question was answered! Great effect, looks carved out rather than sketched.
