Description Well, not one I am especially happy with, though I enjoyed playing around with different patterning from my usual style. This piece evolved randomly and it shows!

i understand you are not happy with it - but to me it looks gorgeous - love the loose randomly flying lines and especially the scarce colouring...
this could be one for "spirals & swirls"...

The Rotings are OK, but a bit grey for my liking.

I love that texture you created. It makes me think of the gills on the undersides of mushroom caps. I can't help but stare at it and follow those small line segments, looking at the detail. If you don't mind the comparison, this sort of work reminds me of an artist named Daniel Zeller- with his organic repetitious designs.

Thank you. A compliment indeed. Having just looked at Zeller's work following your link, I am feeling quite inspired. And thanks for the fave too.
