Castle In The Sky

As a child I used to doodle a lot. Anytime and anywhere, stopped only by fatigues or Mom shouting,"Not the wall!". Back then parents already charted our "success path" by following a tried (and tired) formula: get an education, a University degree and doors would be open for you. Preferably a Medical or Law Degree. So Arts and any artistic inclination were not the ideal path to trod on.

The fact that now I am still NOT a Doctor nor a Lawyer (and NOT raking in big bucks), plus also NOT an accomplished person in the Arts industry must have been an anomaly totally unpredicted and unexpected in my parent's charting of my future.

I became a normal person. Salaried and living life by the day hoping that by some divine providence one day a sudden windfall of fortune will turn this dreary existence into a life of total ease and luxury.

But my doodling did not stop. Doodling, drawing and even scratching out some kind of images on the desk became a passion. Just like those cavemen, needing to express himself before words were invented, scrawled on the cave walls.

MY cave wall is a 17 inch monitor and my tool to etch images is a CPU with tablet, mouse and keyboard input devices.

Here is a mascot for my yet-to-exist Studio Buffalo. I know, usually one would start with a Business Plan. I don't have any, but I have a mascot:
