Hi, I’m Michael B. Vokabre, student, traveler, artist and computer and roboticist from Moscow, Russia. My motto: Love. Freedom. The power of joy. My philosophy: I’m going alone I was studying scene-design and arts in the College of musical and theatre arts #61 from 2001 to 2008, in 2004 I made my first portrait. It sucked, but I liked it. 20 sketches in a week was obligatory, I hated to drew them so I always was one of the worst artists in group. But everything changed few years ago when I started to draw not for my teachers, but for me. I left the College in 2008 and started to draw more and more. Pencils, charcoal, pens, marker pens. In June 2010 I made a record - 65 sketches at one night. My secret is simple. I love everybody and everything I’m drawing. I’m drawing my ex-classmates from the College, my best friends - Katya (Kate, “Onee-chan”, “older sister”), Rita (“Ane-chan”, “younger sister”), Sasha (“Nemi”) and Vlad. I’m drawing my new friends, classmates from the school #1480 where I’m currently studying and classmates from MosGU (Moscow university for the humanities) where I’m learning Japanese and was learning English and German. I’m drawing my Internet and twitter friends I know more or less or just strangers from the web who asked me to do the sketch of them. And I’m drawing a lot of people just passing by while I was filling my notepad with drawings somewhere in Moscow or in travel or there could be not even people and not even places in the real world, there could be scans of my small notepads with everything I had in mind. ✈.✎.♥.
