Life with Picasso, Art
I recently finished reading this book Life with Picasso, and there was much in that book that I wanted to remember for ever. So I made some visual notes for myself. This is the first in that series.

Reading Life
I just finished reading Life, the autobiography of Keith Richards and here are some drawings I made while reading it.
Mini break
Some sketches from our weekend trip to Kesroli. We stayed in a real 14th century fort that is now a hotel.
(The brown boy is reading The Beekeeper’s Apprentice.)
This is the view around the fort, which was on a hill in the middle of a valley surrounded by other hills. Just like Mordor.
I’m reading This is not the end of the book.

Books of the Month
The Sorrows of an American, an amazing book suggested by my friend Katrina.
