Meet Kerby Rosanes, the king of doodling

Spend some time with one of the best doodlers in the world, Kerby Rosanes

He says he's inspired by the work of legendary Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki, but his style is all his own. A few years ago, Rosane quit his day job in Manila, the capital of the Philippines, and committed himself full-time to his art.
Since then, his work, which is influenced by his childhood growing up in nature and under the shadow of a "really beautiful volcano", has seen him travelling the world and spreading the good word of doodling.
