Description:

Draw or paint any object, but also include an inset with a detailed close up of one aspect of the object. For example, say you choose to draw a tree. You would draw it as though you are standing back and viewing the entire tree. Then, you would draw a smaller component of the object (as part of the same ATC) as though you were standing very close to the object and seeing it in finer detail. So for a tree, you could draw one of its leaves, or the pattern of its bark for example.

You can draw the detail at any macro level you like. So again using the tree example, you could draw just the leaf as the main object, and then the inset would be at the cellular level as looking through a microscope.

Another couple examples: you could draw a clothing garment, and then as the inset draw the pattern of the fabric the garment is made from. Or, draw a full view of a peacock, then add an inset of one of its feathers.

The inset can either be contained within a shaped frame, or just surrounded by white space, so long as the inset is clearly distinguished from the main object.

Please be sure to write the swap name and your username somewhere inside the envelope with your ATC.

Swappers in good standing may apply, I will be checking profiles for recent 1's, late swaps, etc.
