Concept sketching is an essential part of my process, allowing me to explore ideas fully before moving to the final piece. I embrace the multi-layered nature of color and linework, whether with markers or pencil, where each sketch becomes a piece of art in itself. The act of sketching lets the vision evolve organically, capturing the energy and fluidity of the concept. It’s through this exploration that I can fully develop the depth and texture that defines my final work.
