One morning while I was in Maine, it was cold and rainy. So I drove down the block to draw this quirky old ice cream shop. I sketched it while sitting in my car which I never do but I needed to block the raindrops. As I was drawing, a bee flew into the car and landed on my drawing thumb. He really attached himself and had no intention of leaving. I stayed calm and watched his striped lower half bob up and down slowly. It seemed this would go on forever so I eventually stuck my hand out the window, blew on him a little and shook and off he went without incident. I got back to the gruelling task of trying to make a store appear on a blank piece of paper using a ballpoint pen and a few colored pencils.
