Each design usually takes about two nights to carve out. I cannot allow for any mistakes as they will show up in the unpainted areas. Also, as I cut I'm essentially committing to the design on the first pass. Though elements I've drawn in previous sketches usually appear in these paintings, the design for each painting emerges as I work on it. This is to attain both a naturalistic and contemplative design.
