    I sometimes start with an actual sketch. sometimes not. I do in my
    one offs allow myself some freedom in the design as I am working.
    Sometimes as I work other pieces take form in my mind and this has
    sometimes lent itself to a whole group of work just from one piece.
    I call it the willy nilly approach HA HA. I am, most of the time,
    very faithful to the sketches. I trace the un-calibrated stones and
    work the design around the stone and color the piece before making.
