During the creation of a recent work, (_The Storyteller_, 18x25", Oil on Panel), I shared a number of WIP (work in progress) images. I thought it would be nice to share them all here in one place. ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/smartmarx/original/1X/e2b1c36f55ee19730828f0242bec759328ce1eb8.jpg) The Storyteller, 18x25", Oil on Panel ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/smartmarx/original/1X/1f09278f60ead6e99429fcb4b161f184937499ee.jpg) WIP images. ---

Incredible work, Anthony. It just looks like youā€™ve shoved your paintbrush next to your still life arrangement and just took a photo! Is everything in the setup very deliberately placed (ie sketched out in rough first) or are some objects placed while setting up and you happen to like it there? ---

Thanks Tom! My arrangements are definitely organic. I do start with a few anchor-placements (to build an initial context) and then continue to add and subtract until I find the ā€œspiritā€ of what I set out to communicate. ---
