Day 65

Aaaah bucket list item #425(-ish): Learn to draw patterns really well.
I would think that drawing patterns takes 3 things:
  1. practice
  2. love for geometry/math
  3. practice

If I could, I would just sit around and draw patterns all day (could meaning had the time and like legit knew how). Patterns are amazing. Whether they're perfect, messed up, square-y, triangle-y, victorian, plaid, tesselationy, flowery, vine-y, paisley, stripe, checker, argyle, circle-y, zebra print or whatever, i absolutely love patterns. I gotta dedicate this to brogan, the most amazing pattern drawer i've ever met. sigh....patterns from the arabic world are the best

craaaazy. The intricacies and geometry of them are top notch. This is my aspiration. This is my inspiration. Patterns man...I have so much more to say about patterns but I can't think of it. I'd write a book on patterns, just to be around them. Just to learn more about them. Also fractal patterns are the coolest things ever ever ever ever. I might just do patterns for a few more days. OOOh and gustav klimt rocked at patterns. He threw eyes and vines and wierd lookin stuff into them and varied the size but they still looked amazing...aaah i gotta go to bed. More tomorrow.
