So many ideas, where to start?

It's March already and I've realised that what I've been missing these past months is taking over the dining room table with my paints and actually creating new artworks.

I have so many ideas for new types of family trees for celebrating newborns, anniversaries, wedding guestbook blanks and more but I need to make a decision and get started!

A year ago a customer sent me a printout of their family tree on an ancestry wheel/fan chart. These charts are usually very plain but I want to create a really pretty fan chart using foliage in place of the lines between the names.

I'm considering which plant to base it on and wondering whether a vine of some kind may work.... or maybe a winding clematis...

anyway, I thought that if I put my idea in writing here then I will be obliged to finally get those pencils out and make a start!
