Mario Picardo Sketchbook ain't no doodles Boutros was a researcher atBorn in 1985, French artist Mario Picardo draws dutiful inspiration from his surroundings. The minutiae of city life, overlooked but nonetheless vibrant, are documented daily in photograph and sketch. iPhones and notepads filled. Imagination sparked. Picardo's hand translating it all, eventually, in rich, child like imagery. Sketchbook finds Picardo at his zenith. The images carry his studied naivety these ruminate on space, place and popular culture.
