DRAWING IN PROGRESS....Idea to final stage. "FINISHED".

I've done this before. A bit of a reveal. I start with a loose scribble of sort, and then try to find the image hidden within the blank piece of paper. Yes, think I'm crazy if you wish, but it's true, there's and image in the piece of paper that's crying to come out, you just need to encourage it bit, by bit. Don't try all at once. Don't try to hurry it. Have a cup of coffee, go for a walk, even set it aside for a few days, the image is still there waiting for you to coax it out...

We'll come back in a few days once I find the time to encourage the reveal....

In the meantime, just to let you know, the ducks are back, and soon the songbirds will arrive, time to do a bit of birdwatching. Pack some sandwiches, and apple, or two....your binoculars of course, and head out to your favourite wetland for a bit of peace and quiet while soaking up a bit of nature.
