Hortus

Hortus

20" x 20" - 14 gauge canvas, using Appleton yarn colors.

 

This was my fourth attempt at a Kites and Darts theme. In this case I colored in the areas bounded by the "blue" curve that can be drawn on top of the kites and darts design.

This design is essentially the same as my piece Penrose Curves 2. The coloring scheme was chosen to emphasize the symmetries, and I was surprised at how much this in fact enhanced the design. This is by far the best of my Penrose designs. It will be hard to top.


I have documented the development of this piece in my article Anatomy of a project - Hortus.
