These were all done "live" – that is, I captured the conversation as it was taking place. Sometimes I'm given info in advance, such as for some pieces I did at the Sechelt session. Other times I do my work during breakout sessions when I'm not required to record on the spot (e.g. the 
second drawing for the Sea to Sky session). This gives me more time to organize the ideas into clusters – something that's hard to do when the talk is flying thick and fast! But sometimes I manage to organize as I go. I think I got it this time...I'm looking forward to having more opportunity to practise at home now that I've got a nice big place with a whole separate room for an office! Beats hell out of working off the kitchen table...
Hi Avril:
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your experience and reflections. I have been in this field for 20 plus years and it is still exciting and challenging. I love to see the work of others and to get to know their interests. That way we can refer to one another. I am especially interested in ways we can cut back on air travel and work more locally -- for the sake of the environment. Please take a look at my blog on Global Climate Cafés:
