Very interesting how you created the drawing. I keep telling myself that I must get this book and do some of the exercises in it.
Sounds like a wonderful book - I love the wy you used rumpled towels as inspiration.
Jeanette and Casey: I now see pictures in almost everything: clouds, leaves, cracks in the sidewalk. I am having a lot of fun with it.
