My Reason for Drawing

I really love drawing, just simple drawings helps me relax and gives me joy, drawing stuff with just pencils or black ballpens, no need for coloring materials, just simple art either on a sketch pad or a boring notebook that I use in class.

When I was still a child, I remember my mother teaching me how to draw Snoopy, every day I practice drawing that dog, when I got the hang of it, she made me draw costumes on Snoopy, I made a policeman snoopy, a fireman snoopy, a soldier snoopy and even a cyborg snoopy, then my mother told me that I can draw anything I want now, then I draw her, I really did an awful job doing it but my sweet mother still complemented me with it, and said I did great.

Now every time I draw, I remember my sweet mother who had passed away when I was still young. I draw not because I’m bored or have nothing else to do, but I draw because I don’t want those memories to fade away. Even now that I’m at college I still draw whenever I miss my mother.
