The Process

in case you were wondering how one of my designs comes to life, here's a little photo montage of the process.

set up design based on rough pencil sketch

nope, not right. move design around.

better, but let's see what it looks like with the background.

m'kay, liking it better. how 'bout the whole design.

ok, we might be ready to assemble.

but, wait...maybe the background needs more umph.

ok...we're done...

of course we're not done...it needs more pizazz

ok, just right! NOW we're done.

so, there you go - i obviously forgot some of the process (when did the 'r' and 'g' change to zebra stripe?!), but you get the picture. ha! and, bonus - you get a little "keepin' it real" feel. yep, that's my dining room table, i like to design there and then cart everything back and forth from the basement a million times. whatever!
