first friday brainstorms

i purchased fabric today for a wearable piece i will be making very, very soon.  here are some images i have been looking at that in some way relate to what i'm doing.  i usually gather images like these on my desktop after searching for inspiration on a particular strain of ideas.  i am posting these to share with those interested a very important part of making things, the part where i pull from many different ideas and attempt to unify them in a work.  this is a rigorous process of adding and subtracting information to and from the core elements of the work in progress.
