Stoops is all about impressionism - he's got great draftsmanship, but there's often a minimalist, spontaneous, sketchy look - there's a lot of scratchy noodling, but his compositions have a sense of bold simplicty and strong contrast in design. In his pen and ink work, he uses blacks to great effect - lots of large, areas of shading done with brush - he's all about chiaroscuro - stylistically, he's very comic book-friendly - he has a cartoony quality, and he's dynamic and expressive as well.
