Despite my scanner's issues with determining borders, it apparently is very acutely aware of the two different types of ink I used on this one. I was going to do it entirely in pen, but after hours of working on it up to ten minutes before class, I had to switch to india ink so I could finish on time. Sorry. It looks better in person.

Aaaaaand it turns out my computer refuses to save any image I've rotated. If technology had a face, I would punch it. Turn your head again for this one.



Islamic Patterns – 6" x 6", ink

For this assignment, our teacher gave us handouts with an overlapping circle pattern. (He also showed us how to make the circle pattern with a compass.) Using a compass and straightedge, we were to connect points and find new patterns within the pattern, until we found one we liked. He allowed us to freehand details if we wanted.
