"There's nothing that isn't a source of inspiration." — Ed KorenI was tempted to post this drawing without any text whatsoever. But this is a blog post and so I shall write.
I show a xerox of this New Yorker cover to all of my basic drawing students because it is my single most favorite cartoon. A brilliant and deceptively simple expression of the power of drawing.
Meditate on it.
