a variety of things, but let's concentrate on the making of lines on paper tonight:
basically i have to create marks implying patterns. the markmaking itself is the compulsive process expressing itself, and everything you see being drawn isn't "planned"-- there are sketch versions of the regions i'm drawing in this illustration, but there's no visual referents or guidelines for the foliage / moss / tree bark i'm penciling. the faking of the texture itself is the compulsion: i have to, i don't know... put the lines where they are meant to go. which you can only know by expressing the mark? which is some zen bullshit and this is why i try not to talk
