If you don't cry over these drawings you've probably got a heart of stone.

Ben Cameron from Rochester is the artist behind the saddest doodles in the world.

He started doing the drawings to pass the time when he was working in what he describes as a "very boring job".

"I started doodling when I worked in a shop. It was my hatred of the place that got me thinking I might have to do something to get out of there. I used to doodle to get a reaction from colleagues and twitter - they pay my rent now!

"If I didn't hate working there so much, I wouldn't have carried round scraps of paper to draw stupid things to amuse myself and colleagues. I wouldn't be doing this now."

You can see more of Ben's art on his website and buy prints from his Etsy store.
