Working habits...

I always struggle with being too tight if I paint traditionally first. I fuss, I fidget but there is something about traditional work that really can't be beat with Photoshop alone. So tonight I had fun working on an idea--trying it first in a tight format, then seeing what I could do loosely sketching it out in my sketchbook. In the end, I like the sketchbook version better.. Probably if I did it on the computer I'd have yet a third concept of favorite..
