'Pat's Kids'

graphite pencil 14x17

Christmas Day 2000

 
Well, I had gone months without drawing a thing. Usually I try to stay sharp by at least doodling something. Sure, I doodle 3-D shapes likes cubes and work on 1 point perspective, but my doodling really isn't that much different than what you might do to kill the boredom. I had stopped taking commissions. Done. Finished. I wanted to please ME for a changed. Then a member of a band I was playing for asked if I could draw something for him as a Christmas present. I hadn't done that since Maria's Angel, so I was a little apprehensive at first. But the the idea of a challenge was just too good to pass up. I consider it a success not because of how it looks, but because he was happy with it and I enjoyed drawing for the first time in a long time. The bottom line is that I can't stop doing something I love so much...
