Great blog!!
Thanks for sharing!!
Its great to see your step by step process in how you work!! :D
I have currently just been working on a digital thumbnail for an exhibition piece in LA. I have put the digital work in progress piece on me blog, but plan to have the traditional finished piece scanned in and slapped up on me blog by the end of the week. So, people can see the way i some times approach things... As i work it up with inks and paints etc, i'll try and remember to photo its step by step progress!!!
Looking at your blog has really encouraged me to do this. Its really nice to see the stages and processes different artists go thru to create their finished piece. :)
Thanks for sharing!!
All the best!! Keep up the fab work!!

Oh wow, that really cheers me up to know that I inspire you. My advice, don't afraid to censor or hold yourself back and think of like your talking to friends who care. Because you'd be surprise how many other artist out there appreciate the process.
thanks, I'll check out your work
