Description April 2011
One of our teachers, Mr. Pettit, was hospitalized last year from cancer. He has this whiteboard outside of his office. I left this there anonymously. I never signed it, but a few classmates guessed it was me, and the story spread. As you can see, a couple of people commented on it (literally on it). I erased them when I came to school the next day, as the purpose wasn't to show off my art skills.
I never even took a photograph of this drawing. I never knew that this photo even existed until today. I asked for a copy of it from our superintendent, who took it, and he gave it to me. I'm still glad that someone did capture it before I erased it due to excess "modifications" by students. I was grateful that the entire high school left it untouched for several whole days.

I can't believe I've not seen this before.
I know you didn't draw it to "show off" , but your skills on a whiteboard are remarkably exceptional indeed.

I do know how difficult it can be to draw on one.

I've heard that a lot about many different things. I have a lot of stuff buried in my gallery if you look for it.
You think this is good, you should meet a kid named Kyle from my school. He does white board drawings all the time. In fact, I've never seen him draw on paper. If this is a pre-schooler's scribbling, his is the Mona Lisa. He is absolutely remarkable! And he's only a freshman in high school, too, I believe.

That's worth my awe as far as drawing goes.
You should ask him if you can't take a few snaps of his drawings some time.

He draws in a room I don't have a class in, so I don't often see when he does, but I'll definitely try next time I can.

Thanks, Noxid.
There's this one freshman in our school who does absolutely ASTONISHING white board drawings. But he never draws on anything else, so I don't know if he can draw well otherwise. It's kind of interesting.

How curious!
Whiteboard is a strange medium to specialize, for sure
