Frame - The Fly, The Elly and Me

(Disclaimer, the titled for this post was funnier in my head)
I'm really enjoying playing with composition recently and it has become a really valuable tool in all of my work I feel. I enjoyed this task as it was similar to the roughs one, in the sense that we had to manipulate three seperate elements within a frame, but we couldn't choose them this time. I enjoyed working within the limitations as it made me think more about how each element had to work in relation to the others and I feel that working to those boundaries helped me create some creative solutions as it was more like solving a problem than the last task which we more defined ourselves. I also feel that because we were limited in time, I churned out a lot more ideas in a shorter time span, which I feel like I haven't always done enough of in the past. Because of this I had more ideas to choose from for my final drawing and I think that the choice I made was stronger as I had to eliminate other ideas to make it. The main idea behind this one was just to subvert the sizes of the butterfly and elephant using arrangement, putting the most focus on the butterfly and having the elephant as an element of the foreground.
