Playing with google images and symbolism


Today I am feeling lost and despair about my practical work so I decided to just go on the internet and research on google images. Lately I have been inspired by Hieronymus Bosch. I see the juxtaposition of beauty and ugliness in his works. I see in each of his paintings a number of symbols. When I look at his paintings I see birds, branches, eggs, feet, and ears, that I feel represent ugliness. I am researching these images on google images to add to my work. Once I have gathered all the images, I will research their meaning and symbolism. I feel, if I juxtapose images that mean something or have symbols that refer to beauty and ugliness, I feel that will add to my work.
