"Another way to sort of push yourself in a new direction is to take a small item not so microscopic that you can't see it but a small item and then look at how many different views you can find in that item and still like know that it's in this case the watch. This was done as an in firmament. Here's the watch. It was put in the middle. That's the watch and then these are the photographs of every possible aspect of that watch or perhaps looking at it more closely, the variety of watches that these people make but it's all the little details of something that's already small so you're really blowing it up and you're giving yourself again a look on something that you don't normally look at. So, it's this idea of really looking for all the different you know. Here, we really see the knob the wind up knob here. Here, we really get an idea of all those connection of all those hands and that's really apart of a watch. Over here, I think those are maybe the inside working of the watch. We got something over here that gives the date which you know and the name of the watch which is another portion of the watch that you'll see the edge of the watch which you hardly ever actually think about and then the connection of the watch with the watchband over here. So, you know that's already you know look at all these different views out of one thing you know. If one side is something that doesn't look good, you might have to turn around to the other side and then you could go further with this and then you know make some of these really large. Make some sort of a collage with these. Start you know adding color and you started yourself a series."
