We had a week to play around, sketch and experiment with these ideas, and at the beginning of the second week, we were given the assignment: square-shaped wall art.
I knew that I wanted to focus on boats, so I drew gobs of sailboats and pirate-y boats, and I assembled them over a variety of background textures. I still haven't decided which final piece to submit, but these two are the contenders. Your feedback is most welcome!
