Reflection/Symmetry
Tweaking around on Illustrator - for the first time may I add - actually turned out ok.
I played around with the shapes tool, and moved on to add block colours and to edit the curves and points by clicking on the anchor.
After this I used the transformation tool and clicked 'reflect,' which copied and reflected the shapes, so they could be symmetrical.
To me, the image reminds me of two ants, head to head with one another and pulling angry faces, as the purple and yellow within the blue oval like shape, appears to represent the ants eyes.
To me, that is what they appear to look like, but they are lacking a body.

Learning about symmetrical and visual appealing really intrigues me, as one of the experiments done was with new born children. What they did was show the reflection of an image and edited - for example - a face so an eye was smaller than the other, the nose was slightly disproportionate, as well as other features on the face which weren't symmetrical.
Interestingly, new born children all found the symmetrical faces to be much more appealing than the disproportionate ones.
This provides us with the ideology that we do not become anal on such things as perfection with age, but are actually born with such attributes, as preferring people with perfect symmetry.
