From a pencil sketch to a watercolor and beyond . . .
Most of the work I do starts pretty traditionally....with a pencil in hand and let the ideas flow....something good is going to happen...;-)
Design from Nature
I have learned over the years that inspiration can come from many different directions...you just need to be open to it and let it happen. Sometimes I start with a sketch...take it and work with it .....then rework it until I am happy.
Layout
Layout and designing the piece sometimes just works itself out.
