+== Other Mark Makings ==
+I became inspired by the work of Paul Klee and his insect-like drawings. I found his abstract and experimental approach to drawing to be very interesting so I tried to add some element of his experimentation into my work.
+Soon after this I had a strange dream which I documented in my mark making work. I dreamt that I was in my bedroom, which was a large white room. I was staring at the wall opposite my bed and on the floor I could see a winding trail of swarming ants. The ants were carrying matches, some in boxes and some lit, all walking in a long line into a small, dark hole in the skirting board. Some of the ants were wearing crowns. I did not know why the ants were there, but the image was so strong in my mind that I created several pieces of work that were inspired by my dream.
