For Matthew

This is a series of three sports-themed drawings I did for the son of my friend Meredith. Considering I know very little (and I mean that) about sports, I'm happy with how they came out. I think I learned a little something with each drawing, one thing being how to draw the various logos, and also how to draw the complex and interesting (although questionably visually attractive) Assembly Hall at U of I. (PS-For those who don't know, the I-L-L-I-N-I is a cheer Illinois fans do while watching the Fighting Illini play. I went to a handful of sporting events in college, so I know that much.) Go Illini!

Matt is still to young to talk, so he'll have to indicate his feelings about these drawings to me in some other way.
