Wasn't too happy with the way this was shaping up as a watercolour piece, which I started before 198. It was a mess and I tried to recover it in the morning with fineliner but it was still a mess. Usually a mess isn't such a bad thing, but as this was a Sharpie packet I felt bad about it. I guess the fact that they are paying for it changes how I feel about what I draw on there. Iknow for sure that I definitely draw differently for paying customers

Bit scary but actually rather atmospheric. Can imagine what you mean about the pressure & payment - do you ever get that feeling with mailart calls too? :>)

Dammit - this just got Boomeranged. Sent to the From address. Grrr
I do get a little performance anxiety with mailart calls I must say. I put a lot of pressure on myself to try and hit the theme spot on. I prefer to freeform, and come up with my own ideas but will do calls when I need a little inspiration.
My last pack of Sharpies for example was a request, and I really enjoyed it. It was a nice challenge actually.
