Hermit Crab



Thinking about yesterday's picture, I realized that I missed a few distinctive element distinctive of Eric Carle's Work.

1. All complicated shapes should be constructed using very simple shapes.
2. No plain colors, everything is cut from a painted section including black and white pieces.

Each piece of the picture above was taken from a full background drawing as shown below.  Node how the spiral was constructed using lines of different sizes cut from the black cloth, etc.
