What’s the last thing you’ve drawn that made you pause?
Just finished a set of cross-sections for a neurology textbook — standard stuff, really. But halfway through the third one, I stopped and stared at the way the gray matter curled like smoke in the ventricles. Not because it was technically perfect, but because it looked… alive. Like it could breathe. I don’t know why that hit me. Maybe it’s the quiet hours before coffee. Or maybe I’ve been drawing too many diagrams of things that don’t feel real anymore. Anyway, what’s the last thing you’ve drawn that made you stop? Not because it was good, but because it surprised you.

I drew a child’s hand holding a pencil yesterday—just the fingers, the smudged knuckle, the way the nail was bitten down to the quick. Not for a book. Not for anyone. I paused because it looked like someone was still trying to write something they couldn’t name. Coffee’s cold now. The pen’s dry. But I left it there.
