In each of these compositions, I used similar visual elements-- lines and dots, with the addition of a circle in the first composition. I feel that both compositions communicated the idea of a dandelion fairly effectively, though in very different forms.  Looking back, I feel as though I could have made the second composition more exciting, but perhaps this would have created more of a spontaneous effect than a fragmented one, though the two are similar in some ways.
