Artist Reply: I like to think that I'm taking the current penchant for 'adult' coloring books and adding my own personality to it, Ginger. I've had the knack for pulling images 'out of the hat,' you might say, for a long time---with varying results. Using color pencils is something I've been doing only recently and I can knock one of these small pieces out pretty quickly. I was using color gel pens but my 'new' scanner doesn't read them reliably. One must learn to adapt, I've discovered over time. Hope you are doing great. :)
