all the world is art

I draw people not because they are simple subjects. I draw people because they are the most intricate and diverse subjects that an artist can try to capture on paper. We're made of moments of sadness, happiness, and anger. We're made of complex emotions that are never expressed the same way, and everything down to our genetic makeup is different from each other.

I draw people because the moments that make up how we are as humans are small moments. They're small conversations at coffee shops, the moments alone in the corner of the bookstore, how we order our food when we're out, or when we're having a lazy day at home. Those are the moments that I draw. I never get people to sit or pose for my drawings because they are artificial. Those moments are grueling and boring for the subject, and they're filled with anxiety and stress. I want to see how people are in their simplest of activities.

You may call it a variety of things that have to do with me wasting time with watching people, but I see it as the finest art in the world in motion unfolding right in front of my eyes.
