Adding another element...

When developing the line drawing I wanted to consider how to retain some control over them. In that, I did not want them to veer into being something that took over. I wanted them to be quick, fast, and free.

To that end, I thought I would try to draw the images for the text as I was speaking the text. So that the drawings only took as long to draw as the story took to tell.

This proved to be difficult, as it transpires that reading, speaking, and drawing at the same time is quite difficult. I found myself pausing to draw and thus the drawing took longer than the telling of the story. 

The next idea is to record the story and then listen back to the story while drawing. However, as an endpoint I am considering a video of storytelling and story drawing.
