don't fence me in..

Posted by amy (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 14 May 2008 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.

Another conceptual. I started with the barbed wire image playing around because I thought it needed something. I don't know how these things come to me exactly but my thought process took me back to the swans and how they have a freedom of flight that I wish I had (as I'm sure so many do). And so from my mind wandering as I sat with laptop resting on my knees, trying to visit Am3ers, watching the old boob tube, and doing that free association type of thing with my mind this is what finally came rushing to the fore. It took about an hour of playing with the texture layers until I finally had the colours and feel to what my mind was trying to tell me. So that, my friends, is sort-a how I do these... I don't necessarily have a concrete vision just something vaguely floating around in the ether I call my brain. ;-)
