I drew these feathers at my mom's house out in the country a few weeks ago. Today, she and I did a little bit of shopping. We went to Anthropologie and Paper Source. There were clothes and paper at these stores with feather patterns. This is not the first time that I have drawn something and then seen images of that subject in stores. Owls and Russian nesting dolls have also been things that I've drawn and then seen them "everywhere." It's one of those situations where I start to feel like either my ideas are really on trend, or I'm brainwashed by commerce and don't notice it until I draw something. I was comforted by the fact that mushrooms seem to be a popular image for women's clothes and gift items, but I haven't drawn them. Because... EEW... mushrooms... bleh.
