Scrap Therapy

There's nothing quite like a page just because.
No assignment. No deadline. No sketch. No plan.


Then again, there's nothing quite like the rush
of working on under a deadline with specific products
and a sketchy kind of idea that morphs into something special,
like this layout that I created for the JBS mid-month March gallery.

No matter how a page evolves,
I just fall into the process.


It sweeps me up, takes me in, and I'm in my element. 
Sometimes it's challenging, and sometimes it's fluid and easy,
but it's always gratifying.

I always love your work, whether it be for an assignment or not! I really like what you did with the bingo card, so fun. Glad you are ok after the events of last week, I did think of you. I hope your family and friends are safe, the world is becoming one scary place!

It's somewhat comforting to hear you say that sometimes the process is easy and quick and other times it's more of a challenge. That's exactly how I feel. I wonder why sometimes it just seems to flow, and at others it seems a struggle every step of the way. Either way, your pages never cease to amaze and inspire me :-)
