Power 6/6

I drew these six pencils on Friday, January 9, while taking part in a one-hour session with *Paper Pencil Caffeine* a drawing group in Zürich, Switzerland. The theme was “Against hatred, for freedom of expression” and the sketches have been sent with our solidarity to Charlie Hebdo. It was a nice moment for reflection.

Hommage au Maître (Tribute to the Master)

I think Georges Wolinski wouldn't dislike this:

Good Bye, Mr Wolinski. Good Bye, Master.
