Up In The Air

I was inspired by watching the patterns that a flock of starlings made.  Their organisation made me want to form typography with the spaces.  I also wanted the starling flying towards the viewer, escaping, 'flying away' from the flock.

I remember watching them shift and swirl as a child and thinking how beautiful they looked, I even find the starling in its self beautiful there plumage is lovely as is your illustration, its a wonderful take on this week word.
