This is a sketch I've been wanting to make for a long time. I always believed that if you want something bad enough and you work hard for long enough, you can make your it happen. As a young kid, I knew that I wanted to be my own boss. I wanted to be independent and free to think and make decisions about my life and future. I didn't want to ride shotgun along the road of life. I wanted to be behind the wheel.
It's weird that things from your childhood have a way of resurfacing in your adult years. Lately, I've been thinking about my old hobbies and how much they shaped me. Like the music, the BMX and dirtbikes, the beach, the old school cars, and sketching/drawing. Now that Iām my own boss I want to go back to some of these ideas and look at them from a different perspective.
Hope you enjoy this sketch. Let me know what you think below.
