I used to doodle all day every day when I was a kid. Nope I never quite made it as an artist, but I guess by practicing daily, on top of all the influence from reading my comic Art collections, I developed a keen sense for how light and shadow falls. Which has helped me greatly in my career as a photographer. So the moral of the story is, do not dismiss your kids when/if they start drawing day in day out, or stop them from reading comics, cause you never quite know how their future will turn out 🙂
