Working in a small, intense non-profit means working with people who talk sincerely, who share personally,  and who cry together. It was that kind of day. I coped partly by drawing in my Moleskine, which isn&#8217;t the best medium for artwork (unless you have the unlined version). But sometimes ya just gotta draw. I came home and added color pencil. This is also for Illustration Friday; the topic this week is &#8220;smoke.&#8221; I had started another doodle depicting a person emerging from smoke, but then I sketched this.
