Sketchbook... Diary of drawings... Collection of madness that comes from illustrator head... Compilation of silly quick sketches, thoughts, ideas, visions... When you take a look in the a sketchbook of illustrators, you can learn a lot about the owner

My sketchbook is a kind of carnival of weird characters mostly monstrous characters what to do when I like to draw all sorts of creatures. But these creatures are not evil, they are like naughty children run away from nightmare of reality.

Here, my creatures jealously lurking until they upset with a new arrival, a new character drawn – weirder than all of them put together. With disbelief they wonder: Who is this new guy? Uglier and scarier than us...

Does he like to eat children, or just to frighten them? Did he originated from black ink or just a mirage? Perhaps the Creator knows the answer?
