I often enjoy starting with a previous design and then pushing the design that bit further ,examples if this can be seen the following images.
Using the jungle play painting as a starting point I created a section of the image tracing over the image, I then used pencil and pen to mirror the sectioned area and then let my imagination fill in the gaps.
My second piece develops this idea further creating a new image that takes the work in a new direction . Both paintings can be viewed on my paintings page
