Zari Haidar Marin has created a vibrant series of illustrations, using Instagram as a platform to share her creative doodles.
Zari started doodling as a way to express her frustrations and worries, she jokingly told
Instagram that “My motto is, ‘A doodle a day keeps the psychologist away’” .
She uses napkins, tray mats, cup holders, and her notebook as canvases for her works—Zari likes to add touches of humor into her drawings to encourage others to always look at the bright side of life, or invent it if they can’t find it.

Instagram account to get inspired.

#jesuischarlie?!...No; I condemn terrorism but I'm not Charlie 😔 • Please don't get me wrong, I'm completely against violence and I value freedom of expression...but I believe that human beings should be more respectful and tolerant! Or, in the words of Mandela, "for to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others." I also believe that art should be used to unite people and not to ignite hatred! There is too much shit in the world already! 😫😭
