Art is everywhere.

Today, on my way to work on the train, my eyes landed on an artist sketching in his notebook. Intrigued, I asked to see his sketches. He created wonderful drawings, including portraits and urban scenes. What fascinated me the most was his train sketching. It seemed as though he captured every trip, transforming the ordinary daily experiences, often rushed and disregarded, into a space that made you want to pause and look around, discovering new impressions.
We began a conversation about art, during which he started sketching me. This gave me the chance to delve into his past experiences with art. I learned that he is an engineer from France who is currently touring Europe.
