Back to Drawing




For any and every other illustrator, drawing, in some form, is a natural, expected thing that you do all the time, that is a simple requisite of your profession. For me, it's not so simple and drawing and I have this Lifetime-movie of a relationship, where drawing is my high school sweetheart, but I'm the one who makes a terrible mess, leaves dramatically, swears to never come back, but at the end returns humbled, with a Faith Hill song playing over the credits. This is how it was all through college for me, but now we're back together and although the credits may not roll any time soon, I have pages and pages of drawings for the first time in years and just maybe, I can call myself an illustrator again.
