Designs for client presentation

When I prepare a stained glass design for a client, It is usually a small (between 8.5"x11"-11"x14") watercolor and ink design on watercolor paper. I don't do large-scale projects like church naves: I'm usually doing no more than a couple panels at a time, for residential installation. I was wonding what the rest of the world does for design presentation of similar scale work? Thanks in advance.

I do the same. Sometime I just use colored pencils. However, in the past few years I've reached a point to where I don't have to even do up any drawings. My client and I talk and then I just go ahead and make something. I have never had to take back any work and have always gotten great reviews. I always try to give my clients just a little bit more than they ask for.

I show my portfolio of work done and various design books, and let them pick out a few things. We then narrow it down, price it out and pick out some glass. Believe it or not without any drawing or sketch. I then take a deposit commitment. After all these years I've found that many artists give away too much of their skill and time when it's not needed. Why not save all these drawings of yours, as well as pictures, and let them choose? Even if it works some of the time for you, think of all the time you'll save in coming up with original designs over and over again?

First it's 900*F soldering tips, and now he's touting overpriced, underfeatured software.

Disagreeing with anything you post serves the same purpose as a positive suggestion. Dumbass.

You never answered my question to you Dennis. you keep knocking all of the pros here. You tell us how we don't know what we are doing. You tell us you and only you, know a better way to do everything from simple cutting, and soldering, to making money. You criticize and threaten us with almost every post. Why would you expect to get a warm reception here? You represent yourself as the enemy, and are treated as such. What else do you expect?
