The fan

Fan
The days are hot and humid. Little solace I find in front of the artificial breeze coming from the fan. The monotonous sound of the spinning fan blades fill the room. Plant leaves and assorted papers rise and swing gently to the sides, riding on the soft wind. Now, all I need is something cold to drink.

Coffee mug

Coffee mug
One of the most common sketching subjects among fellow doodlers is the coffee mug. It's no surprise as it's fairly easy to sketch and you really can't go wrong. I mean, it will always look good no matter how hard you try to mess it up. So, if you are a new sketcher, looking for a starting point, draw your coffee mug.

The monk

The monk
When I was around the age of twenty I had this wish to become a monk. To live a simple life devoted to god. To search for enlightenment. But life has it's way and I guess fear and skepticism pushed me away from walking that road. However, I have no regrets. The path may have changed but I am still trying to follow a simple life and I still have my faith in god.

Wooden vase

Wooden vase
Many times, while at home, I find myself holding a sketchbook, trying to find an object to draw. I walk from room to room like a mindless zombie. Hunting.
Finally, I give up with a silent sigh. After finding nothing interesting I go to the living-room, sit down and look around. For fuck sake, anything is sketch-worthy, right?

Chicken on a spring

Chicken
I drew this one while being in a local playground with my wife and my daughter. My wife has this gift of finding lost treasures that are buried in the sand. These are usually in the form of little plastic shovels in various colors and shapes to the joy of my little girl.

Obama?

Obama?
This is a pretty bad sketch of Obama. But I decided to post it anyway. Well, at least the page texture looks good...
