I love this. I remember when I was in the 8th grade in Math class. I was practicing to draw hands in order to take the art test to get into Edward R Murrow high school. Mr.Chew snuck up on me and looked from over my shoulder. I got nervous because I was caught! I was caught making art instead of doing math! instead of scolding me, he said, nice drawing. I'll never forget that.
