Back of the menu sketches

I have been working a lot lately, and not drawing for fun as much as I probably should, oh well --for a guy who's basically freelance, it's good to be working! So night before last we all went out to the local Mexican restaurant and the girls wrote their names on the backs of their kid's menus, then came over to my side of the table and asked me to draw them under their names.

I like how Jane had to give me a credit on the bottom of her drawing. It's funny, too, how she had to use my full name, as opposed to "Dad". Kids are funny. You can almost make out what's written on the other side of the paper too. Hopefully I'll have some time to do some proper sketching here soon.

They're great. I love Jane's pose. Lovely pieces of family life.
Your girls must have loved that. And i smiled when i read your full name written under the drawing!
How sweet si this! I am so glad I found your blog! The girls are so cute! Love how Jane is stretch out there! And how creative Lily was with drawing her name...
These drawings really moved me...maybe because of the closeness you have with your kids, or because of my few precious memories of my dad drawing. Your daughters are obviously very proud of their wonderful and talented dad.
Thank you all so much. Sometimes I worry that I post too much kid stuff up here, but they're so animated and funny that I can't help but draw them. And at some point they'll become sophisticated adults right? and I'll have wished I drew them more when they were little, I just know it. It's nice to hear your comments, thanks again.
