Noah made this sketch a few months ago while waiting at the kitchen counter for dinner, but I just finally got around to scanning it tonight. I thought it was worthy of saving and posting here. This is a drawing of his father (hence the arrow pointing to "Carry"a.k.a "nerd."What I love here is that neither the artist or the subject was disturbed by the label of nerd, but both considered it something to be kind of abashedly proud about. To the left are signs that are meant to read (with a little spelling help): "Genius working. Quiet!" and "No spit balls." I like all the first place ribbons and the robot and the extra detail of the bug on the overhead light. The bug seems particularly Richard Scarry-esque. I have to say, though he did a decent job capturing Cary's hair, goatee, and general face shape, Cary does not have ears like Marc Brown's Arthur. Overall though, nice job Noah.
