Cartoon Guy With Dreads Drawing Novels & Stories

“I don’t know how to draw. This isn’t working.” Darryl buries his face in his hands in frustration as he lets Goldie stare at his chicken scratch scribbles on the notepad. He had spent around two hours trying to draw a man shoving Goldie’s head into a bucket of water, but he can’t quite figure out the anatomy and physics behind it. Goldie tosses the notepad back to him and gives him a thumbs-up, only to receive a scowl from the other male.

He could tell that the drawing was upside down because Caiden drew himself, too. And the wolf? Was drawn as a shadow. Dante stared at the drawing for a good while. It was impressively drawn and detailed, and the longer he looked at it, he saw that in Caiden’s hand in the drawing was a name tag. It was small but he could read it and it had some unknown characters on it. Rubbing his temples, he placed the drawing and left. “This child is a headache all on his own.”

the man asked, steadying her by the elbow. He looked to be in his late twenties, maybe early thirties. Sharp jawline, neatly trimmed beard, short hair swept to the side like he actually took time with it. His button-up shirt was tucked in, sleeves rolled up. Looked like he belonged in a coffee commercial or a teacher recruitment ad. Definitely not a parent. Ava blinked. “I...I think so. That was a banana peel?” They both looked down. Yep. Banana peel. Real-life cartoon.

I corrected, caressing his hair with a smile just before one of his other drawings caught my interest. “Can I see this?” I gestured to the drawing of the three stick figures that was beside his current work. “Yes.” “Thanks, sweetie,” I beamed, as I studied the stick figures, wondering who the three people were, although I had an inkling that the two shorter ones were supposed to be him and I. The third one was taller and slightly larger and I couldn't place a finger on who it could be. “Who are these people?” I asked, and he averted his focus from his work in progress to look at the drawing.

He's been with Theo all afternoon—I can tell right away by the state of his knees, which are covered in grass stains and a burgeoning hole in one pantleg. He puts something on my desk. I look down to find a stack of paper and a mess of crayons spilling across the surface. The paper on top of the others has a colorful drawing, a four-year-olds expert rendering of stick people. "That's you," he says, pointing at a figure. Medium height, somewhat circular. "And that's me." The smaller figure. "And that's the Alpha." A third figure. Tallest. I look at the drawing for a moment, trying not to break down in front of my son. "Why is the Alpha in the picture?" I ask carefully.

I said, ruffling his hair, as his twin returned with a drawing paper. “This is what I drew, mummy. I got it, right. I said drew.” He cheered, to which I smiled, stroking his soft cheeks. “Yes, baby. You did,” I said, collecting the drawing from him. “Now let's see what we have here.” There were four painted figures on the paper; two small ones, who I deduced were Liam and Leo with a slightly taller one with long hair and red lips, who I knew was me and a tall man with short hair.

“I could never be mad at you.” Conan tilted his head slightly, watching me with an unreadable expression. Then he reached forward and ruffled Jayden’s hair, making him giggle again. “Why don’t you show me your drawings?” Conan asked, nodding towards the papers scattered near Jayden’s little backpack. Jayden’s face lit up. He scrambled across the rug, gathering his crumpled sketches with clumsy hands. As he launched into an excited explanation about each scribbled wolf and oddly-shaped tree, Conan listened intently, nodding at all the right moments.

"But don't think too much, especially at night, okay?" He doesn't know that I notice his small actions. Maybe he thought being cheesy was too cliche, and that's why he doesn't like saying things like that. And I like that about him. Because that's what makes Cayden, Cayden. "Your drawing sucks." I joked. "It doesn't even look like me." Cayden leaned in to see his drawing and frowned. "You're right. You look so much worse." He nods. "Especially the chest area. Oof, it's smaller in real life."

In short, he looked like a giant doll. "Brother Lionel, do you think you look as cute as a cartoon?" This was similar to her favorite cartoon character, that was why she drew Brother Lionel like this. "Yes, very cute." Karen Joy took the effort to draw him. How could it not be cute? This should be the best cartoon drawing in the world. "Brother Lionel, do you like it?" She hoped that whatever she did, Brother Lionel would be satisfied. Of course, she also hoped that Brother Lionel would like the gift she gave him.

Her lack of friends and the busy work schedule of her parents have made it easier for her to do her work with little to no disturbance. She began to draw the actual cartoon characters that she watched - Dora, Doraemon, and Spongebob. She was able to have them executed to perfection with every detail similar to the cartoon aired on television: the imperfect square of Spongebob, the quirkiness in Dora's facial expressions, and the joyful body of Doraemon came to life. Her drawings were in shades of gray. The lack of color did not hinder the characters from being well-drawn and made lively by just a simple touch of her pencil that was considered poor quality in creating an art piece. She had no
