It’s been a while since I posted some scans from one of my lovely Moleskine sketchbooks.
Here is a recent double-page with completely pointless and absolutely not topic-related cartoons and doodles.

When I am on the phone I am almost always doodling. Sometimes it’s just cubes and geometric 3D shapes, sometimes it’s plants growing all over the page and sometimes I just start a drawing without thinking. I have no idea what it’s going to end up being until I hang up the phone….
This example demonstrates this habit quite nicely:

I am usually always doodling. Always have been. If I am on hold on the phone or even watching TV I like to scribble away.
I find that a ball point pen is quite fun to do really fast sketches and fine hatching.
I can go through these so fast you can see the ink go down in the back.
