Math Art

mizarchivist: (Fractal)
I'm already getting a bit tired of Infinity circle designs, so as I previously projected, moved on to Celtic knot work, also courtesy of Miss Vi. The initial test leaves a great deal to be desired both in design/layout and in raw materials. I'll try nubblier paper next time and work on my over/under designations before I commit to inking the silver outlines. I also find most of the fun comes from shading, which this one lacks. The nubblier paper may well be the key: makes for better wicking. This super-amazing cold press watercolor paper Mom gave me for Christmas just sucks the paint down too quickly. 

Despite the initial quick boredom with the Infinity set, I don't think I'm done with that style. I'd like to research other layout and themes for what are clearly totem paintings. Aside from the Koi (2x) and Browncoats, I did a Hindu theme one and 2 Southwest/Zuni style featuring [livejournal.com profile] asciikitty's preferred totems. I need to break up the space a bit and that might make the notion of the theme work better. We'll see. 

So, math art. Who knew? It's my answer to meditation.
