as far as these go, they are my first thoughts and so still need developing... looking at the work of Abram Games recently, I can now see working examples of how a single idea has been developed into a final piece... this is something I feel I've been lacking in some of my previous work. although i may sketch out a thousand ideas, i would usually pick one of them and just work with that.. rather than taking that one idea and coming up with more versions of it... refining it into something fantastic as opposed to settling for something is ok... i will scan some of the pages of my recent book, however it is at uni at the moment...
