“Illustrator and designer Anna Raff has a blog called Ornithoblogical where she posts a drawing about a whimsical bird-related topic everyday (which are sometimes related to random national holidays). I’m especially loving her watercolor birdies!”

ReplyDeletedo you edit, or self censure in any way what comes up to your mind ?
Hello Guy. Yes, there's a lot of censuring and (sometimes) last minute editing/revising. I try to be a few weeks ahead, which permits me time to change my mind. For instance, just now I adjusted the sequence for the next week to improve the balance of images. And I revised one that suddenly looked funny to me.
