It takes me many, many steps to abstract things, thoughtful simplification is hard work.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t currently draw well enough to begin my own motifs, so I try not to think too hard about what animals and poses I&#8217;d like (except for goldfinches in the middle of a bobbing flight, I so want goldfinches in the middle of bobbing flight.&nbsp; There are Batchelor&#8217;s Buttons that have gone to seed in my garden that I haven&#8217;t pulled up yet because I like to watch the goldfinches eat their seeds &#8211; and then fly away to the woods in a bobbing flight.)<\/p>\n<p>When I want to make a motif, I look through sources that have the copyright in a comfy place, and see what cool stuff I can find.&nbsp; The advantage of looking through available drawings over walking in the woods, and then looking for drawings similar to what I just saw &#8211; is that I cry less.<\/p>\n<p>Animals in nature twist and preen and move charmingly.&nbsp; In reference books they all have the same pose so it&#8217;s easier to identify them.&nbsp; But I&#8217;m not trying to identify them, I&#8217;m trying to knit them.&nbsp; So if I start from an illustration, I&#8217;m charmed by the illustration, not frustrated that it&#8217;s not what I had in my head (and can&#8217;t draw&#8230;yet.) &nbsp;I like drawings better than photographs, because they have already started to become abstracted &#8211; and the texture the artist used helps me figure out what texture to use in the knitting. &nbsp;Photos have way too much information.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2022\" src=\"https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Image-3-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Image 3\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Image-3-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Image-3-683x1024.jpg 683w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I have two criteria when I choose a&nbsp;drawing;
