Drawing from Life

Of coarse, I've noticed how kid friendly my work is. I use to copy cartoon characters like Simba from The Lion King and Garfield into my sketch books as a youngster. Though, I believe it wasn't until life-drawing  in college that I finally learned how to draw well. Now, drawing from life inspires the cartoons that still  fill up my sketch books.

On most Saturdays during the school year there are drawing sessions open to the public on the local college campus. Yesterday, I scribbled this and enjoyed the atmosphere created by the fixtures and empty chair and table.  Like an open invitation for an opportunity to draw.
