As i wanted to go with the theme of nature, after branches, the next element that came to my mind is water. Initially, i was wondering how should i make water interesting when it is just water?
Before:
I found really good references of water cut outs on pinterest. It reminded me that water could contain so many things! Fishes, seaweed, bubbles, plants, etc. I was really inspired by the fishes and found out that it is the perfect element for my initials.
References for this piece:
The main keyword for this piece would be flowy and deep/layers.
WIth these reference, I have decided that i would make the 2 fishes show G and L.
Actual making of this piece:
I would firstly sketch and cut the main subject so that i can get a sense of space they occupy and what i should do with the other layers.
