Some of you may remember this 5ft drawing idea that i had a few years ago. The piece was to be called, "Aquatica Nautica". I had a lot of momentum and inspiration going into it but then then i hit a wall, and then another one, and another one.....Now that I have a plan to continue developing this pencil epic, I'd like to share how I arrived at this point. This may also be good advice for anyone working on a larger piece or a bigger project that will take a lot of energy and time to complete!

Also thanks again to my lovely editor Josh!
