Original Pattern Ink on Paper

I'm not updating this blog much because I have a full time office job now. But my job is technical and non-creative, so I need to keep doing my art on the side as a creative outlet to keep my brain healthy.

This hypnotizing pattern started out as a doodle on the back of a notepad from work (I think I was unwittingly making it as I was on a phone call) and I liked how it looked, so I brought it home and started inking it on grid paper. And I will say this...making patterns is hard. Especially alternating patterns. I messed up in the bottom left. But, as Salvador Dali said, "Have no fear of perfection, you'll never reach it"

Now that I have this scanned, maybe I can print out copies and start coloring them in.
