| When I pick up my pencil to doodle, my squiggles usually start morphing into plant shapes. I guess I’m a bit obsessed by the study of plants as shapes, textures, and masses, and by thinking about how to create balanced vignettes that are pleasing to the eye.
On a recent flight, I passed the time by churning out sketches of garden scenes; creating elevation-view sketches and then converting them into garden plans. I often draw using my iPad as well, but there’s something about actual, physical pencil-to-paper that's still the fastest and most freeing for me.
I’ve created a series of short videos that capture this sketching technique in real time—warts and all!
