As of right now, this post is incomplete. The first drawing is that of my thumbnail sketches. Basically just as many ideas as I can come up with, inspired by Michael Parkes, his quote listed previously, and some form of an optical illusion. It took me quite a long time to figure out what I wanted to do but the second drawing is what I came up with. In the end, I felt like it didn't quite have enough of an optical illusion, so the final drawing, which I will hopefully post tomorrow, will show the edits.
To explain my design choice, I started to play around with objects that are off-balance with one another. This was because Michael Parkes regularly depicts animals and people defying gravity, off-balance with the world around them. From there, I went to the quote, where Parkes invites people to live in other realms. I took that, and the optical illusion idea, and tried to create a series of off-balanced lines which seem to pull you into a different realm.
