It's not just people sketching this Spring, I've been flexing the imagination as well.

These little sketchbook doodles are actually derived from real life. I bought a new bicycle recently, really. It doesn't look quite like this, but this is how I feel when I ride it.

Daughter really, really, REALLY wants a pet. Something cuddly and furry.

I say, wait until we move house.

Ah yes, our new house! Our lovely new house! Now that's been on my mind a lot recently....

There are a lot of things on my mind lately.... somehow it all gets rather twisted when it gets put to paper.

Here are some more sketches made earlier this month on Tokyo trains.

On this trip in particular I drew a lot of train passengers. Daughter and I were staying in familiar territory near Tama Plaza on the long Den-en-toshi line, which snakes from Chuo Rinkan in Yamato through the northern suburbs of Yokohama to the great hub of Shibuya, from whence it evolves into the Hanzomon line and continues eastwards through the middle of Tokyo.

Daughter and I have just arrived home from another flying visit to Tokyo. As I was only in town for a couple of weeks it was a very busy time squeezing as much into each day as I could, most days spent zipping from one side of the city to the other. That's the way I like it though, Tokyo is a city in constant movement, it's a place to stay busy and on the move, a roaring metropolis. But it's also a place of fascination and beauty, filled with oases to dip into for much needed pauses.
