Collecting visual information
I started by photographing some drawings of a snake skin which I had done some years ago. I cut and pasted the images to make a composite picture.
I then used Photoshop to convert the image to greyscale and then applied a photocopy filter.
I did exactly the same thing with some old drawings I had done of fish.
I played around with cutting and pasting to get a less rigid fish composite:
Words describing subject
Looking at my two main subjects of snake and fish I considered words which I associated with them.
Drawing
I used the words to inspire me to make marks which I felt communicated something of the feel of the subject.
