The melancholy of a 3D teacher

This is my 3D animation teacher.
Bumped into him today, on the bridge linked to my school. He was smoking, as usual. (wth lol, teachers aren't even supposed to be seen smoking near the campus) So anyway, I had to be a nice, polite student, so I went up to him and did all that usual greeting BSes students have to do.

Then that guy turned, and gave me this exact sad smile. I mean, who the hell would suddenly go all depressed and fragile looking at a student? (Then again, I'm probably the most problematic student in his class. It's probably natural for him to want to cry when he sees me around the corner. ) And since we're on a bridge, there was super bright sunlight coming from both sides, adding to the dramatic effect. My mind was screaming at me : "DRAW THIS SHIT OUT, SHAN, YOU GOTTA DRAW THIS SHIT OUT"

And... so I did. :|

But yeah...if I ever lived his life, I'll probably be casting sad looks every where too. This guy suffered truckloads of hardships before getting here. And probably still is.
