This is one of my smallest drawings. It is 5 by 7 cm. I was experimenting with accuracy within a small space.
IPAD 1 had just come out but hadn’t reached Zurich and I had just moved there.
Being on my own I went to the Zoo and did some quick sketches and I was unexpectedly surrounded by a bunch of curious kids!
I didn’t mind but I wanted to be left alone to test drive the IPAD for the first time and the idea of a middle aged man on his own drawing the attention of kids wasn’t something I had in mind. I planned to finish the silver back. He was beautiful. There were more sketches of other animals but I didn’t bother uploading them.
I did this charcoal drawing and then turned it to this by Photoshop for kids.
Map of Iran is similar to a sitting cat.

Such a fantastic race deserves to be captured in my doodles!
I once did an animation of Ahmadinejad. This was part of the “where is my vote campaign” when the Iranian elections were rigged ( not that under the Islamic Republic there has ever been proper elections but even with their twisted standards they rigged it!).
