After walking out on his last job with only half of his monthly salary, Steven Martin found himself homeless on the streets of Chicago.
With nowhere to go, an accomplished cartoonist, he turned to his drawings for peace of mind.
These days he gets up, has a coffee, smokes a few cigarettes before he heads to a coffee shop to start drawing.
Steve continues to eschew offers of a "regular" job and says that illustrating helps him keep his sanity.
Artsworld meets the homeless man who has drawn more than 1200 pages of cartoons comprising three volumes and eight stories.
