Lapin

Lapin is a French illustrator, artist and urban sketcher based in Barcelona. He can be defined as a mobile illustrator who carries his sketchbook and his compact sketching gear into the street, into a bar, into the metro, to Istanbul or Tokyo. Lapin has already filled around 200 sketchbooks over the last 20 years. He is particularly fond of sketching on vintage accounting books from the 1970s, which he finds in flea markets.
