Habib in Mali, who I drew via Zoom a couple of weeks ago for my #NickDrawsNationals pandemic portraits project. It’s not often I get to draw a bonafide celebrity during this project, but Habib Koité is legit famous as a Malian guitarist who has toured the world, worked with famous US blues artists, and released many hit albums. It was a pleasure and honour to meet him. I like my drawing, although he said his face looks too “rond”. I did most of the drawing after our session, from video stills – there were a lot of interruptions and technical glitches during our call. I think this is the first time I’ve drawn someone with dreads – I sometimes feel like a barber, chatting away while working on my subject’s hairdo! An important detail to point out: the amulet Habib wears around his neck to ward off evil spirits. The stripes on his top are the common African flag colours red, green and gold. 🇲🇱 I’m tempted to colour them in! #nickdrawsneighbours #drawing #portrait #portraitdrawing #portraiture #birodrawing #ballpointpen #ballpointpenart #ballpoint #neighbours #sketching #artinlockdown #artinisolation #isolationart #NickDrawsNationals (at Portslade, West Sussex, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqabulHoioT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

There are two kinds of people. I am both.

(Okay....I’m the second.)

Also: gentle reminder that home exercise is important, but don’t put too much pressure on yourselves. Take a self-care day or week: this is a stressful time. Take care from a socially acceptable d i s t a n c e, friends! ❤️

On 13 March, I drew famous guitar musician Habib Koité (“kwa-teh”) in Mali, via Zoom, for my #NickDrawsNationals pandemic art project. Our tenuous connection goes years back. I heard his song ‘Manssa Cise’ in a UK television documentary around 2000, immediately looked it up, and found an MP3 copy that has been in my music library ever since (Habib later told me this is an old tune of the Malinke and Fula people, often played on traditional instruments). Last year, by chance, I found out a friend was roadying for Habib’s band on a brief UK tour. I met him backstage at a local gig, where he agreed to sit for a portrait when he got back to Mali. We tried to meet a couple of times, but he was either busy with his toddler son, or lying in bed to escape the heat outside (it’s currently 40ºC in the day, and rising). When we finally connected on Zoom, there were audio problems and a few misunderstandings. We held the conversation in Habib’s English and my broken French. Born in Senegal, Habib moved to Mali as a small child. His parents were both musicians: his dad a guitarist and his mum a singer. He’s had great success as a professional musician himself – touring America (LA is his favourite city), collaborating with famous US blues artists, and playing gigs across Europe (Belgium is his spiritual home there). I asked if he likes any particular musical genre, but he said there is a continuity between his traditional African music and modern blues. In 2019 he launched a new album and was going on tour with it, but then the pandemic changed everything. Suddenly none of the US or European concert halls were taking gigs, and there were no flights. Luckily his record producer gave him some money to live on. Post-Covid, he’s enjoying being back on the road, and was looking forward to an upcoming Tuareg music gathering in Mali, and a blues festival in Paris later in the spring. I was just settling into the session, when Habib’s friends drove by, and he had to go. #nickdrawsneighbours #drawing #portrait #portraitdrawing #portraiture #birodrawing #ballpointpen #ballpointpenart #ballpoint #neighbours #sketching #artinlockdown #artinisolation #isolationart #NickDrawsNationals (at Portslade, West Sussex, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqaZ6QAIxVt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So... my post office is in a pharmacy.

However, for those amazing people who are still supporting artists like me during this strange, scary time, I will gladly hike through the proverbial fires of Mount Doom to ship your parcel. This is my silly way of saying thanks. 

And while I’m need of a restock for a lot of things, my shop is definitely still open :)
