Math Art

[mizarchivist]

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 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.

I was explaining to my cow orkers just yesterday that someone who was not me had taught my kids to count on their fingers in binary and that they think Vi Hart is as cool as I do. My cow orkers don't get it.
