Bug’s Eye View

A bird! Will it step on me? Will it eat me?

Experiment Sketch 1

The thoughts of bugs remind me of the outdoors and nature. As a small sized bug, it is surrounded by tall plants. Hence for the first sketch, I have drawn grasses surrounding the bug.

Experiment Sketch 2

I wanted to explore the place further. I have imagines and drawn how it would be looking up to the sky from the ground in the garden. The second sketch consists of flowers and blades of grass standing highly above the bug. This shows the distinct difference in height and size of the plants and bug.


Final PieceFor the last piece, I have decided to go with the first sketch but making it more interesting by including a living animal i.e. bird. In the sketch, the bird is standing somewhere among the grass looking for food. The bug happens to be facing in the bird’s direction, feeling threatened as it is unsure whether it is standing in the bird’s way, will the bird step on it or worse, has it become the bird’s next meal.
