When you rely on your creative ability for a living, you must find ways to engage your mind in play that disengages the thinking mind so that it can relax and be creative.

The Loma Linda University Cancer Center is creating a beautifully landscaped garden area and needed something more than this rough sketch that the landscape designer had provided to them. So, I took this and set it back in perspective, took a look at the plant life that was included: camellia, ferns, azalea, annual color, and Japanese maples and created an illustration they can use in posters, flyers and other collateral materials for the Cancer Center.
