Today I planned to create my doodles plans of my design process model but instead I decided to Aquascape my new tank and draw dinosaurs, also play dinosaur games all day. I found it pretty ironic that after watching youtube videos regarding the Design and Creative process, I didn't do much work; though I did follow the video instructions where if I felt burnt out , I would go back to it when I had the muse. Doodling helps me sort out my ideas and forms them in my head whilst im carelessly doodling. Aquascaping is something I do rarely, but its the closest thing I currently have to 'nature' considering how cold it is. I love Aquascaping because it clears my mind and relaxes me, its equivalent to listening to thunder and rain soundtracks on youtube to clear my mind. Doing those things have helped me to settle down and research ideas which is where I came across the river graph and created these illustrations based on what it might look like.
These are some examples of the river graphs I created. For some reason they weren't really 'satisfying' enough to use in my final work as they didn't look good. To me, I was only going for the river graph design because it looked really pretty, but when I realized I couldn't exactly replicate it, I decided to go for another option and that was a normal graph with my own touch to it.
So I created this;
I was mainly practising and messing around with my brushes but when I realised how nice the texture of this brush was, I suppose I kind of went off.
