DRAWING IN MY DAY JOB




Overview
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Reflecting on what it's like to draw at work, and collecting the
images I've drawn there so far.


Remembering how to draw
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's pretty cool, I think, that my drawings are featured throughout a
school district website. My day job is, of course, being a web design
and developer for said school district. The drawings I get to do there
are a side-effect of this employ. All the same, it does feel like I've
carved out something special in my workplace. Being granted the
creative freedom to illustrate doodles for the website brings me joy
and fills me with pride. Quite likely, the reason that I'm drawing
comics is owed to these doodles, which came about out of pure
necessity. I was designing and building the district's website, needed
illustrations to enrich its pages, and set about to created the
illustrations myself. From there, I rediscovered the pleasures drawing
brings me and have been using it as yet another tool for
self-discovery.
