Part of Nausea series inspired by the novel of the same title by Jean-Paul Sartre.

With ink, I sketched several people in a bar; however, just over my shoulder is an intoxicated man begging me to engage in a conversation about being a writer. He sweats. He bangs his spoon against his glass for a refill. Meanwhile I attempt to draw my subject and ignore my disdain for this man. Ironically, the result is one of my favorite images of the series.
