Okay, so what's with the characters? First of all, I did some reposting of some of the same drawings from a few days ago because my scanner was temporarily off line, and I had to use my phone to take pictures, resulting in what I find to be inferior results. But the scanner is back online (the downtime with the current crisis has actually gifted me with a lot of free time, which I'm making good use of. Resourcefulness. It's a beautiful thing) with the higher quality, scanned images.
So, why the characters? Well, a co-worker of mine who is a voice over artist issued a challenge (in conjunction with the current health crisis) to all the artist types out there to draw him some characters, which he said he would provide voices for. So, again, "Challenge Accepted"! #quarantinechallenge #youdrawitivoiceit
By the way, I don't think he specified gender.
