Here are a couple of sketches I did while I had hours to kill in Erbil Airport. I was sketching to stay awake. Sleepiness is my excuse for struggling with the white on grey ceiling pattern, in the first one, which I fought to correct after I mucked it up. One sketch was not enough for the hours I had to kill, so I did the second one at the gate.

What a delightful glimpse into your creative process! 🎨
I really appreciate how you turned the wait at Erbil Airport into an opportunity to sketch and explore—there’s something so relatable about fighting with a tricky pattern and pushing through despite sleepiness. Your honesty about the struggle makes the sketches feel alive and human, and the dedication to creating a second one shows true artistic passion.
I love how you captured a small moment of observation and turned it into art—truly inspiring to see creativity in motion, even in unexpected places! ✨🖌️✈️
Thank you for your kind thoughts! Glad you appreciate my efforts.
