Roaming Ideas: Character Study

original work by Christine I Steeves Speakman

Sometimes pen and paper work best, thanks to my new handheld scanner, I have the best of both worlds.

 First something, a word, a voice, an experience, a picture prompts a word. The word prompts the meaning which leads to the image.

 From there we have choices to make. Directions to explores.

While I love my computer and the speed and clarity, sometimes the physical feel of pen scratching paper…the freedom to move in circles and arrows…keeps speed with the brain, less likely to hit that delete button 😉

Now, if you really want to read my “chicken scratch” give it a try 😉
