I was at a gig once and someone asked me "Does the money for this cartoon go to you?" It made me pause for a second, I thought, I drew it, where do you think its going? but in that moment it challenged me, I have always had the heart to want to help others, to bring hope and Joy, it takes one kind act to change the course of someones life. It got me thinking, What does the money from Nick love Cartoons go? Although I'm not a not for Profit business, the money does go to help me and my family, but how to do illustrate who I am and what I'm about, I'm about the Bigger Picture, not only for my life, the life of my family BUT the Bigger Picture for the other lives. Here the Idea was born, BigR Picture Initiative is bsically my mission statement that by using Nick Love Cartoons you are helping me and my Bigr Picture Initiative programs support and encourage others to focus on the Bigr Picture. Someone might of lost there Job, Or Bullied at School, they feel so down that the can't see the picture for today, Let alone tomorrow, maybe the Cartoon or a workshop or a Draw coaching session might be the beginning of their journey on the way to a better tomorrow. The future isn't drawn yet, We can have a hand in the Bigr Picture. I would love your help in helping others draw their BigR Picture, The below is was that I'm currently doing so

DRAW COACHING
Ever heard of Life Coaching? Well, Imagine if a cartoonist did it. Nick Love Cartoonist has developed a Draw Coaching session(s) that can be done one on one, in Small or Large groups or as a large scale event. Created out of my own struggles, Draw coaching is really my way of helping to inspire and encourage others. It's a great way for families, groups or teams to bond and draw on whats important in life.
