It all begins in my high school physics class, where I had the privilege of encountering one of the finest educators I have ever had the pleasure of learning from. I spent a significant amount of time engaging in discussions with him on subjects that few students typically show interest in. Unfortunately, the pandemic forced us all into confinement, yet he never wavered in his energy and enthusiasm for imparting knowledge to us. One day, my classmates and I arrived at his virtual class visibly drained and lacking energy, a result of the overwhelming workload and the exhaustion induced by the lockdown. However, instead of proceeding with the lesson and disregarding our condition, our professor chose to listen to our concerns and engage in an uplifting conversation. I will never forget that moment, for it epitomized what it means to be an exceptional teacher.

I knew I wanted to express my gratitude, but I was unsure of the appropriate gift. I had previously presented another teacher with a poster, so I thought, "Why not?" I began sketching the poster for this particular professor, enlisting my classmates' help in recalling moments we had shared with him in the classroom. I enrolled in several courses to enhance my knowledge of lighting and Photoshop workflow, and in comparison to the previous poster, there is a distinct improvement in the final product.

In the end, on a particular day, my fellow students and I surprised him in his classroom by presenting him with this poster as a token of our appreciation for everything he had done for us. We included the signatures of all his soon-to-graduate students, a gesture he is unlikely to forget. Within the frame, I included a verse of my own creation, which read:

"This drawing is a journey through space and time, Preserving the memories of your years as our teacher prime. No matter where you or we may find, In this drawing, our presence is enshrined."
