After my paintings I started thinking about how I could translate them into my own samples and experimentation work. I realised that it was the interesting marks which drew my interested which included eye shapes on the wings such as the ones below, these gave me the idea of using circles shapes. So I then furthered my ideas with the creation of patterns in which would be made up of circles. This idea to the cutting of circles which to begin with started by cutting out by hand from printed copies of my previously painted wings. This process was taking along time to individually hand cut out circles as I was having to draw the circle on the image before cutting so I investigated other ways I could create the same effect. I found a hand punches within a local craft store this allowed me to cut circles out quicker and more precise. This process still took time as I then has to stick each individual circle on to the paper in order to create the patterns. Although this process took along time I am pleased I stuck at it and used the the hand process instead of using an easier computerised method. I feel this hand approach way of working has given the work a more organic feel and I am pleased with the results.
