Great description of your creative process, Patrick. With me it's a different process: at some point an overall picture forms in my mind of what I want to do. That picture then stays with me over the coming months or even years. I sometimes sit in my train room just thinking about how I'm going to realize the next step towards that vision, without actually doing anything. At other times, even when I'm busy with life's daily challenges and chores, the vision is always there in the back of my mind. Sometimes the next step comes to me while I'm falling asleep. But once that initial vision takes form, it's pretty much locked in and doesn't change, right through to the finished product.
