So Simple

  Okay, so the Lilla Rogers (https://twitter.com/lillarogers http://lillarogers.com)
assignment for MATS Bootcamp this month is to create an editorial illustration
about meditation.  I did many sketches and decided on this one for my final.
Tending to be a little ADD, I thought I should read the assignment again.
Going back over Lilla's tips made me change my mind and reevaluate.
More than once she stated to keep it SIMPLE.
  There is so much going on in this sketch, and this one is even more simplified
than the previous sketch.  I think subconsciously I pulled in every aspect of my life
that I can't let go when I meditate.  Interesting how the drawing worked therapeutically,
like meditation!  It had to be done to melt away those issues, so I could get on with a
clean and powerful image.
  I have a new sketch I am working on now.  Feel a little pressured due to lost time.
Final illustration is due the 25th.  I wanted create this one traditionally and digitally
and pick the best one, but maybe not enough time.  We'll see.
  Monday we get a surprise tip from Lilla which is always helpful and inspiring.
Not sure what you will see next week,  a little surprise of my own!
