2. The What If Stage?
At this stage in the art process I have gathered everything me that draws my interest for the project at hand. The media is not a factor at this point. I need to look and process in my mind the direction I might take. It is like a giant jig saw puzzle, what if I put this here, what if I join this with that, what if this texture works with this element? And it goes on and on, a constant questioning, and moving of one object to another place or another, taking an image out, leaving one in, does idea flow in my mind. If we wanted a more technical name for this process it would be called divergent thinking. I am not concerned at this point about how things attach, even if it is possible, only that it brings a possibility or interest.
