Rough Ideas For 1st 3 Works




I have a clear idea for my 1st concentration work, the only difference my final 1st work is going to have  is that it'll be in color, less cracks on the "main" egg, better shading, and more geographical components (the mountain things and the cloud).

Now, as I was sketching this rough draft (crappily might I add) I began to formulate what the final 2nd work will look like. In the top right corner, I drew a little dark chasm with the egg falling down it. Sorry if you can't see it that well, I had already drawn the..bad one...when I thought of the one I'm really going to do.

This one kinda came along like the 2nd one, all I'm thinking about now is that it's going to be a cave-like place, with the cracked egg and the smaller baby dragon laying in the "rubble". It'll be a little while before i do this one though.

Things That Inspired This Idea

Just a picture of a cracked egg that I got from this website about preserving food (?). I took it because I like how the light is breaking out through/out of the egg, like something powerful is being born.
This one i got from another artists blog (I think its called 'joon.be'). I believe that even though some people might say animals aren't sentient (like people), they still have aspirations, dreams, and wants, even if it's just to survive. This bird's want to fly (and maybe survive) are deferred with a broken wing.
This last picture I got from someone's Tumblr page (think it's called brexian's cove). I picked it for similar reasons as the other bird picture, but not exactly the same. A dream can be deferred by coincidence or on purpose, and by that I mean by you or someone else. You defer yourself by believing you can't, or just giving up all together. And I'm sure you can guess how someone else can defer you.

So, Imma name It Flight

For my 12 concentration works I'm going to catalog the life of a flying creature, not completely sure what kind've creature it's going to be though. I wanted it to be a bird at first, but I got kinda unsure of that when Ms. Holliday suggested about the bird living in a kind of surreal environment (it sounded cooler than just a forest or a tree or something along those lines). I want it to represent freedom, growth, hard-headedness, the unachievable, and belief in oneself. It might sound like a lot of different subjects to be put into a story about something learning how to fly, but not too difficult to incorporate.
