Developmentof Ideas with visual reaserch

    As part of my developing of ideas, I focused on a part of the motif that I intend to transform into a pattern and make it using the linocut method. Then I will place it on selected parts of my projects, or all of them. This part is still in process, it will probably come out later. I decided to focus on the white oak tree, American Robin and Mountain Laurel motifs. I tried to combine them in various ways, the results of which are presented below.

Then I transferred the simple sketches to Illustrator, where I could make more colour options. Using ready-made graphics, I recreated the sketches, trying to keep them as simple as possible. I then transferred the simple sketches to Illustrator, where I could make more colour options.

Then I turned them into black-and-white versions. I wanted to see what they would look like in monochrome. I wanted to have visual options in case I didn't have enough time or the process of using multiple colours turned out to be too difficult for me.
