368 Portrait of Giorgi Margvelashvili, the president og Georgia drawn by pencil

This is Giorgi Margvelashvili, the president og Georgia drawn by pencil! (When will wikipedeia start linking back?)

I’ve been struggling with time recently – yet I keep painting in watercolor – so I listened to the advice of memadtwo (and many others) and decided to do this quick pencil sketch instead of a complicated watercolor.
I really like drawing in pencil – I think i got a lot of character down in this one without making too much effort. Sure, I could spend more time and make it nicer (or atleast plan it out in advance, so the guy could keep his ear) – but I enjoy these quick sketches.
Each time I do a pencil sketch, I tell myself that I ought to do more of that – then I do watercolors for one month! Let’s see what the medium will be tomorrow – I hope it’ll be another pencil sketch !

The drawing ofcourse, is part of my “Rulers of the World” series and although I might have turned the guy into a somewhat unpleasant felllow, I feel that I must say that I don’t know the guy, or anything about his politics. He’s probably a nice person – but being a public person, I’m sure that he’s used to it.

Do not forget to join us at reddit /r/ onedrawingdaily where we are about 5 people who each post our daily drawings. Daily. Or almost daily. Or paintings. The thing is growing slowly, but I hope it can get some momentum and perhaps attract some people from outside of the blogosphere too!

Oh and I almost forgot the photo I used
