Turning boredom into happiness

When making this drawing
What I was doing: “It was a very boring presentation where the sales manager was giving a very boring client projection presentation. I somehow put my boredom on paper (my sketchbook which I always carry with me, with crayons which were to be used for brainstorming). Didn’t have the courage to show such a scary sketch to her!”
Where I was: “At work, in my last office on my desk, otherwise I come back home and do it inside my room, while listening to music. It helps me unwind the day’s stress.”
Alone or with someone: “Generally alone, I also sketch a lot in crowded places like airports, markets etc.”

A peacock

When making my drawing
What I was doing: So am sitting in a meeting and suddenly realized my mom wanted a motive from me which she could embroider on a wrap she was making for me (don’t you love moms for that!). Not that am a animal lover but something about the peacock always fascinates me :)
Where I was: In a meeting with my boss *cheeky*
Alone / with company: Faint noises of my boss arguing with a vendor in the distance, a snoozing projector which was flickering on and off, heaps of paper samples and an open Pantone book
