Illustrations—“The Permaculture Blueprints,” March 2015
These illustrations are “cut out blueprints” for an article by Justin Rhodes on the fundamental assets of a poultry-driven permaculture operation. You can read the article here: http://www.abundantpermaculture.com/#!Before-You-Get-Started-With-Chickens-The-Permaculture-Blueprints/c1aod/5508584e0cf2031a764a7f78. I backed Justin's “Permaculture Chickens” Kickstarter earlier this year and since then he has asked for volunteers from his backers to help with many tasks. I jumped at the chance to do this one—to be involved and to keep developing my skills as a digital illustrator. I did each of these on my iPad with a Cosmonaut stylus (also from Kickstarter; 5+ yrs ago) and Adobe Draw for iOS. Linework AND color.
