I've often told of how, as a kid, I didn't know about laying out drawings in pencil, so things could be erased and adjusted, so I would draw everything straight with pen. This meant a lot of drawing getting thrown away! But it also meant that I learned to form the pictures fully in my head before I started.

In later years, when I finally learned about penciling, this "talent" persisted, so 99 times out of a hundred, I "see" my pictures in my head, as a fully formed image. I kind of "project" these onto the page and then "trace" them.

WOW. That's simply amazing. There have been some amazing commissions this year.

I just had a commission done about a month ago, and I want more of them! It's uncanny as to how many characters JB can put on a 11X17 board and actually make the piece look great!

And that is what it is, "talent".  The ability to make it flow with so much going on is so impressive.  Looking at the finished product I can't help but think "Where would you start?"  Very nice JB.
