Many Directions

random Instagram arrangement on a particular day

One of the fun things about internet platforms is the different relationship it gives you to your own art. None of these pictures above are squares — so that format comes from Instagram — but all of them look interesting when cropped into squares. And each has an interesting inter-relationship with the others, a factor that has emerged accidentally.

The framework provides clues for me into the architecture of my own design habits. I can see a bit of my love for putting shapes into locations, a habit that I recognize about myself. I like putting fruits on the still life table, and I like placing shapes into a composition. Do you find that posting your art on internet platforms provides a window into your thought processes? If so, and if you care to comment, please do so below. What mental motions direct your design decisions?
