This is a drawing I made for 2 brothers who like reading. Liam is 9-ish and Edmond is 7-ish. They're sons of a good friend of mine and I was inspired to draw this because of them. I love how they're geeky and ambitious (kinda how I was when I was young).
I got the "Boys be Ambitious" quote from one of my favorite explorers, Captain William Clark. Here's the full quote:
“Boys, be ambitious. Be ambitious not for money, not for selfish aggrandizement, not for the evanescent thing which men call fame. Be ambitious for the attainment of all that a man can be.”
― William Clark
