From a sketch to reality....I used a prepped wooden board with tissue paper, watercolors, acrylic paints, and paper clay elements.  I truly love Danielle Donaldson style so used a bit of it in my design...nothing compared to her gorgeous work, but I like it. 

I started by drawing around a character of hers that I copied to get a feel for what I needed to do.  I also used Danielle's method of naming her. (hopefully she doesn't mind)  I just truly love her style and philosophy.

Then I began...trying to let go, but also trying to stick to my design.  Along the way, I hit some bumps and changed the layout...but found it worked to my advantage.

Enjoy the process!
