Inspiration can come from anywhere. Some Chinese friends came to visit and brought a box of cookies. Well, much as I do like cookies, what really caught my interest was the design on the lid.
What a good string that would make! I stretched it a bit here and there to better fit in a square.
Then I tangled. In this first tile the string is upside down to what's shown above. (I ignored parts of it!)

I just
loved those spinny fan-type things! Solid black beside some of them helps with the effect. I wanted to see if I could do it again. In the next tile the string is tipped over onto it's right side. You can read about the Paradox variation I used
here.

Two more incredible tiles, love the string source! On the first tile you paradox variation seems to project off the tile giving a wonderful 3-d effect. Love it!
ReplyDeletewhat a clever way to get a new string. I like that string too. I often do such swirly strings.
