I guess this comic is sort of autobiographical, although I don’t look at all like the guy above. My dream job is basically to sit in a room, draw all day and get paid to do it. I’m still working on making it a reality.

Great to see you back online with new content. Bookmarked and scheduled for regular reading.
I liked the second last panel. It has the scary look of truth about it.
Thanks for your return notification.
‘avagoodone!
Thanks David – nah that second last panel isn’t based on real life at all – I never had any dates!
Very intersting. Thanks
Awesome new site Gav. And a great idea. Like the drawing style too. Don’t think I’ve seen it in your other comics.. but I like it.
Thanks Ski – good to have you back too.
Looking good bro..like how your style changes with each one. Look forward to seeing the others.
@ David – I can vouch for the no dating part…lol…
is that you? looks like me too. mum reminded me last year how i used to doodle on my pyjamas with pen! 🙂
Yes, it’s based on my life-long love of drawing – but he doesn’t look like me – I’m asian!
This one is awesome Gav. And you’re right, it doesn’t look like you – the hair’s not spiky enough. Great toon though, good message. You’ll get there mate.
Maybe its you in a parallel universe as a caucasian? lol
GAV. PUT UP ADVERTISING ON HERE. SELL YOUR PRINTS AS T-SHIRT AND POSTERS. THEN IN A YEAR MAKE A COFFEE TABLE BOOK OF YOUR BEST STUFF. YOU WILL MAKE ENOUGH MONEY ON THIS SITE TO LIVE OFF OF IT. YOU CAN REALIZE THIS SOONER THAN YOU THINK. (sorry for yelling. but don’t let your humility stop your talent from making you some $$)
Thanks Bashir – I should make you my marketing manager! I know, I will eventually get to merchandise … appreciate the support.
I want to do what I love too!!!! But there are many things I want to do. I want to be a writer, a painter, a cartoonist, a poet, or a photographer. Any one of them would be great. But I know my future job will be a teacher. I don’t hate it, it’s just not my best passion.
You’re too lucky!
This is my favorite one. Definitely inspires me and completely describes my life! Instead of following the usual flow of a 9-5 job, I decided to take a big step in life and plan for my own company. I’m just not sure what to do, but I’ll figure it out soon enough!!
Great work! You truly are a talented artist and this definitely has inspired me to push forward with my goals in life.
Very cool – good luck.
Again, How did you color this one? It looks awesome!!
Extensive tutorial coming … not sure when.
i don’t usually comment online – but i just had to. reading this gave me the chills… you’ve illustrated it so so beautifully! and i agree with bashir, in fact i searched your whole site for the “buy prints” option. i’d love to gift this to so many people! thank you for all the inspiration that your lovely site brings 🙂
Thank you – prints coming very very soon.
Gav, ur wk is brilliant… Keep it up mate.. Cheers!
Great stuff, great stuff !!!
THe story of my life except instead of drawing it’s parkour, martial arts, and other forms of movement. Keep up the good work man.
This inspire me to study and get better on my art…
Thank u!
Thank you for good art
Great illustration.
Just wanted to point out that from the second to third frame, the pen changes from red to blue.
In terms of inspiring other people, you’re already very very successful 🙂
kudos for you
Wow.. great autobiographical comic..
Love your work man! I hope your dream comes true very soon!
I saw this on FB a while ago as it was really popular and I badly wanted to know where I could read more but the re-posters had removed your watermark.
I’d suggest that you start a FB page that reposts your comics (if you hadn’t already, I’m kinda new here!) so that you’ll establish an audience there, too.

Hey I was looking at the SCAD comic challenge finalists today and one of them looked sort of familiar http://scadchallenge.com/finalists/comic_book
look at the second honorable mention, quela-danielle thomas
Thank you so much for your art, I really love it! 🙂
This is the first time I comment on one of your drawings. I just wanted to say, that this drawing in particular drag my attention on following you. And it’s precisely this drawing the one I come back to. It’s kind of funny how an Idea could be that strong.
I’m frightened because right now, I’m halfway through a path I don’t want to walk, and i’m pretty sure that there are a lot of signs on this path that are pointing that. It’s not like I’m some kind of thief or something else, btw. I’m just studying a lot and I’m losing interest on it, and I just want to draw on every surface I find, and play music and listen to music.
It scares me because I’m halfway now and there’s no way back, and I don’t want to be unable at certain point of my life, to retrieve my dreams and those things I dream of.
So, I just wanted to thank you. You and your drawings, that encourages me. Just that.
I just could not go away your site before suggesting
that I really loved the standard information a
person supply for your guests? Is gonna be again often to investigate cross-check new posts
I really like your site. A great way of sharing nice inspirational quotes. Thumbs up for your effort.
Shared it on my Inspiration Boost Facebook page. 🙂

I’m sorry, but this quote is not found in any of the writings attributed to Confucius.
is that you? looks like me too. mum reminded me last year how i used to doodle on my pyjamas with pen! 🙂
Good quote. If you choose a work that you love, you can get best results than other works.
I really want to live this way– but its too risky and a bit unrealistic. So I’ve made drawing my hobby.

I teach employability skills to at risk teens. I was wondering if I could use this cartoon in a hand out concerning choosing a good career path? We do sell our material or make money in any way. Just a handout to our students. Thanks
