Usually it's the other way around- the kid wants to be an artist and his family expects him/her to be a doctor.Namowal (Jennifer Bourne)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00384500508934864421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36618421.post-54569815827109316272008-09-10T18:52:00.000-07:002008-09-10T18:52:00.000-07:00I never saw Cabaret but I LOVE this drawing.

I normally find Liza Minelli annoying, but she works great in this movie.<BR/>I'm glad you were encouraged to draw yourself, and that your dog collection is taking off.Namowal (Jennifer Bourne)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00384500508934864421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36618421.post-91896529425454110442008-09-08T11:16:00.000-07:002008-09-08T11:16:00.000-07:00The drawing is great fun.

My dad used to always say: "Commercial artists can make a good living."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36618421.post-61081309611226881042008-09-08T06:57:00.000-07:002008-09-08T06:57:00.000-07:00My parents encouraged me to draw.

In fact, this pic came from an old shirt box of pictures they saved.<BR/>I was encouraged to draw up until my late teens, when parents and teachers (including a jaded art teacher) warned me that most people couldn't "make a living" with an art major.<BR/>Were you encouraged to draw?Namowal (Jennifer Bourne)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00384500508934864421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36618421.post-19153315350865665232008-09-07T17:43:00.000-07:002008-09-07T17:43:00.000-07:00Can you believe I never saw "Cabaret"?

Were they delighted--Did they encourage you to draw?Linda Davickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03660351950973083893noreply@blogger.com
