This is a room where Jessica stayed when she visited Tamale the first time for work. I don't know if she stays here still, but she was there when she drew herself in the room. Sometimes the daily stuff around you is what you start sketching (perhaps if you are out of ideas). While usually the ordinary is a bit uninspiring in this case its great because I can see what Jessica is around everyday. Now that she lives in Ghana its hard for me to imagine sometimes without a visual. On the back of her card she talked a little about her process, of getting an idea and playing around with a few versions of the drawing before getting something she wants to send me in the mail. I think it was about this time last year that I started a sketchbook for ideas, it let me practice with things I'd like to draw and keep track of ideas. Where do you keep your inspiration for your creative pursuits?
