It's all about perspective...... what we see and what we don't see. I don't know know if it's this project or not, but recently I've started noticing things that have always been there, yet I never saw them. I'm also noticing minute details about everything..... I think it's a good thing actually, Da Vinci did say we should view the world with ALL our senses, and so do the buddhist monks ~ to really experience the NOW, experience it with all your senses at the same time. Try it, it's almost to hard to bear, kind of an overload. As an excercise from a book called "How to think like Leonardo Da Vinci", one had to stop talking an entire day, to HEAR things we never notice before. It's incredibly amazing to do this, you don't realize the sounds around you until you shut your trap and listen, really listen. I would recommend this to everyone!
Back to the sketch. Thia particular sketch took forever, just because of the hundreds of tiny circles I drew in between the bigger circles. It was really fun though, I had no idea what it would look like, just kept on drawing little circles here and there until it reached a stage where the patterns seemed to make sense. It would be cool to see what others see in this image............ it's all a matter of perspective.
