Scanning in my own objects (meccano, leaves, a brooch & jewellery) I have gone onto create the above composition, using both Kerry Roper & the “Flaunt” typeface image as my main sources of inspiration. I am really liking where this style is going,- I intend the use of the butterflies to metaphorically replicate the idea of an insect (a caterpillar) going through the process of metamorphosis to become a butterfly i.e. to become "something else". I want this process, metamorphosis, to play on the idea of women choosing to go under the knife, in the hope that it will "transform" them too, into something else.....Perhaps this idea could also be reflected in the title....."Metaphorical Beauty"? or "Metamorphosis"......Anyone else have any suggestions?
I now want to push this idea even further- I think that the larger yellow wheel is a bit too distracting against the rest of the composition, I need to look at perhaps overlapping a darker object on top of this.
I also need to develop a suitable typeface for the title & edit the areas where the hands are in the composition as they need to be "overlapped" onto holding the spanner & the metal bar to help make the image look less "photoshopped"!
