A big pile of Flour

I always try to use any lost minute to make as much sketches as possible, the idea for  this one just came out of nowhere.

It is an advantage to sketch in a limited timeframe because I don’t have any time to think about what I will be drawing. When I start to think it can take hours before I draw the first line but when I have to start immediately the most interesting scene’ s appear.

This sketch just happened like that, I have no idea why this medieval figure came out of my pencil or why it is thinking if it can load all those sacks of flour on to the cart all at once. Thing is that this could be a scene from a story where you immediately find yourself asking questions like who is this figure, where those sacks of flour need to go or if that poor horse needs to pull that cart all by himself. A good drawing always has a story to tell.

This might be a good idea for a next project. I already feel a bit sorry for the horse though :) .
