19、 drawings, and soon David had the job of drawing more turtles in action. “I learned a great lesson, which was that, to make money as an artist, I couldnt always draw what I wanted,” he says. “I had to figure out how to draw a turtle drinking tea and other things like that.”David worked for 20 years

20、as a commercial (商业的) artist, but he often felt cooped up (禁锢) sitting at a computer for 10 hours a day. Then, on a sunny afternoon about ten years ago, he brought some chalk and started drawing on the sidewalk. Thats when Sluggo came to life.“One of the reasons I like to put art on the street is to
