    Step 1: This work starts on paper. I use chalk and oil pastels and watercolor washes. When all is dry I sketch with oil sticks. rnStep 2: I take 4 hi-res images and stitch them together in photoshop. The reason for this is to get a very detailed high resolution file that I manipulated in photoshop.rnStep 3: I print this image on paper and continue the drawing process. Covering areas and exaggerating others.rnStep 4: The image is then mounted and framed.
