@Peter, sounds like a great exercise! I love whiteboards, and generally drawing really big. Have any products of such sessions you could share?

(1) Start with a large, blank canvas (or whitewall); or…
(2) Start with 2-3 randomly selected images or objects.

I’ve been poking around your site for a while and lovin’ every minute of it. Dude, You are so cool! I’ve said that out loud several times now so I thought I’d put it it print.
Seriously – the Twitter Tips, this page, and especially your Go Wheat Free page (I’ll be linking to that) are all informative and fun to read. I love your writing style.
