hi p!
so nice to know that you use monotype methods in your work. i thought so when i gazed upon their wonderfulness. i think that is what gives them their extra wonderfulness. personally. i am partial to that process and your grunge is fab.

I love reading about how other people work! Thanks so much for sharing. And so interesting about people asking about the “original”…

Thanks for all your comments everyone!

Alex: In the past, my personal fine art work has been all traditional mediums, without the digital aspect. So they are indeed paintings or drawings instead of digital compositions. But I’ve been thinking about changing that for the sake of 1) wanting to do personal art more in my illustration style and 2) ease/time restraints.

So yeah, I can see why that would be difficult when people ask for the original. But I think as time goes by, it’ll become more clear. :)

Good question!

I think I was one of the ones asking. It is always so interesting to hear about what other artists use etc… This is a lot what I do for my digital work. One of my pieces in particular I did this way, I had at a show and everyone wanted to know if they could buy the “orginal” sometimes its hard to explain that the print is as orginal as it gets. I am curious, your “personal” fine art work do you do is the same manner or do you have a completed physical piece? (Only because I have had an issue with this).

Thanks for sharing! I’ve been wondering about the paint and paper you use — now I’m glad to know. It’s inspiring when artists share their process. I returned to art as an adult after watching the Mister Rogers episode where he visits Eric Carle in his studio. You are a blessing!
