Themes:
A lot of the images I've taken have the repeating theme of parallel lines. These lines, which run along side each other but never touch, make an interesting focus. Many of the more natural pictures show crisscrossing lines, showing that nature is more interactive and entwined. 

Possible Artistic Ramifications:
  • Tree bark could make an interesting mold
  • The overlapping and repeating lines could be used in a variety of ways for artists: patterns, textures, sculptures
  • Natural objects like branches and icicles could be used to construct a temporary structure that resembles man-made items but has natural aspects
  • Andy Goldsworthy has done many pieces of art using the above idea. His structures, made of natural objects, are obviously made by man but seem natural due to the materials used
