I love seeing artist’s journal and sketchbook layouts and I’ve filled the pages of quite a stack of my own over the years. This illustration is a collage of my analog and digital work highlighting the joys of a garden and it’s output in glorious color. Nurture Nature….

To me, this is the ultimate use of digital media. You take your analog originals and put them in pleasing combinations with digital stuff that you couldn't easily rearrange in an original drawing, until the whole thing comes together. This is really lovely. I love the little grace marks (scattered peas, bugs, birds), and also the palettes of colors you included. Really original.
