Many years ago I got a commission after another artist had turned it down. Can you supply a set of pen and ink vignettes for a small book in four days? No problem said I. Then I decided to use scraperboard (scratchboard), never having used it before, I didn't even have any tools or scraperboard for that matter. Somehow I got the drawings done and ended up with a very satisfied client but it wasn't really the time to go jumping in to something new.Stuart Brocklehursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01901116311000910745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5784292642337662930.post-22943226892065070482011-09-26T12:40:30.691-04:002011-09-26T12:40:30.691-04:00Did I say October 1?

Eek!<br /><br />Patrick, I think you're right, Montanans might take exception to the use of "Big Sky." But what they don't know won't hurt them, eh? ;-)<br /><br />Margaret, welcome! I often keep a pile of "rejects" in a drawer... once in a while they come in handy for collages or notecards or something. As for the blocks. (sigh) I have crates of those, too. Some people "strike" the blocks to render them unusable and then sell them as art pieces themselves.Sherrie Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01967844327055630854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5784292642337662930.post-39135169388939274182011-09-26T04:18:22.927-04:002011-09-26T04:18:22.927-04:00October 1?
