What Inspired You to Make This?

I'm inspired to teach children like I was—that they can love learning. As a child, I discovered learning through libraries, drawing, math, and playing with magnets. I didn't have many toys, but playing make-believe with my brothers helped me develop a strong imagination that I use constantly as an artist today.
