The upcoming book, The Cabins of Wilsonia, will have 268 pencil drawings of cabins and cabin details.
Not everyone is pleased with the way I have represented his cabin. Most people are gracious about it and know that the book is an overview, rather than a documentary or a complete album.
One friend was not sure about how to tell me that she didn’t want to buy the original drawing of her cabin. She asked a few polite questions, and I got it. I told her that I can redraw it for her any way that she wants. She said, “But I don’t want to add to your work!” I replied, “Darlin’, that’s how I earn my living!” We laughed, and she commissioned me to draw her cabin.
I took many photos and then did a sketch for her, complete with lots of notes.
After I was sure that I knew what she wanted, I started.
After I got this far, I got a little worried and needed reassurance that I was on the right track.
She gave me the okay, so I finished it.
She was thrilled, so of course so am I!
