Every great work of art whether it be a painting, film, poem, or novel starts as an idea on a piece of paper: a sketch becomes an oil painting, a line becomes a poem, a phrase becomes the melody of a song, and so on. My objective for this project was to visualize this process with the subject of a pen as the source of great ideas. Taking a mundane object we use everyday and projecting it in a new light was a challenge, but I was inspired by the freedom that drives creative minds when they unearth a concept they are passionate about.
