Michelin man-ager



If ever Arsene Wenger, current manager of Premiership football team Arsenal, needs a new career, then maybe he might think of applying to be the new Michelin man.  The coat he wears on match days wouldn’t need much stretching or altering to become a costume very similar to the one on the famous logo.  
It must be his French roots.

statue at the V&A

This is the last of the drawings I made on the London Urban Sketchcrawl on Saturday.
I went along with a friend and her 10 year old son, who was probably the youngest sketcher there.
I thought it would be nice to put his drawings on the blog too, so here they are.
