inspiration

I see things from time to time that spark that 5 year old kid part of my brain that first got me to draw.  Someone recently gave me a copy of the book , the Art of Ratatouille.  First, I can't recommend the book or the work of Carter Goodrich highly enough.  Second, after reading it I was immediately reaching for my pencil to do my own take on a rat.  Just as much fun as when I was five.
