The past six / seven months I have been concentrating on simplifying my creative process. Ink, graphite, a swipe of watercolor has been the recipe for my recent pages. I also find myself battling between illustrative and a more realistic approach. It's become frustrating but that's the point where you push harder. Make ugly and sit in the ugly for a while and still continue to create.
Not an easy road but a deeply satisfying in the end.

These look incredible, both individually and as a collection. I can totally relate with the concept of simplifying; I'm tired of being overwhelmed with possibilities. Thank you for the inspiration!
Thanks, Michelle! I'm cyclical in what I use. Mostly because of my work and lack of time. Simplicity helps me create whenever and wherever. Although it can at times feel like I'm stripped of artifice when I work in this manner. I appreciate you stopping by!
Several months ago I decided the same thing. I am down to silver point, graphite, charcoal, spray paint, acrylics, and watercolors. :)
