Here is a sketch of my upcoming print. I invested a lot of time this past week relearning Adobe Illustrator. I learned illustrator back in the late 1980s – so long ago that I had to learn how to use a mouse in the class! I am amazed that I actually remembered some things, but there was a lot of banging my head against the wall and spending hours trying to figure out something that ended up being very simple to do. I think the time I spent will be worth it though, as it makes design adjustments much easier to do and to visualize.

Argh! A lot has changed in Illustrator since the ’80s! I hate upgrades — they always ruin my work flow for a month or two. It’s a great way to make a sketch, though. Looking forward to seeing your progress.
