Even thought the painting part will be very instinctual, I like to map out what I mean to say in advance. Storyboards, thumbnails are right in line with the "cartoon' tradition of the muralists and large scale working artists in the Renaissance....not to mention Bugs Bunny... have a great weekend too.<BR/><BR/>Hi Kremer- At work are we?

What might be used where for the "story line" of my theme for this piece.<BR/><BR/>Grand Isle did get hit hard. It is a lovely place, many good times there and the best ever fresh shrimp platters and views of the Gulf. :-)Janice C.

Setting the stage for the free kind of painting that will come later.<BR/><BR/>Hope you and Joe have a good weekend too.Janice C.
