There are so many repeating patterns in nature....
Have you ever really looked at the whorls and lines in a fingerprint?
the arts have looked closely at nature for centuries and mimicked the earth patterns around them.
look at this aerial shot of a subdivision....so much like the whorls and lines of a fingerprint!
so similar to the camouflage of a zebra!
The bees have it figured out.....
How perfect their honeycomb engineering has been for centuries..
It has been copied in so many ways in our world.
Through tile, fencing, mosaics, wallpaper and graphic designs...
Look no further than our own bodies for repeating patterns in nature. This is a photo of brain nerve cells...remind you of anything?
what about the twisting, interwoven tributaries of a river?
They all are similar to the veining in marble.
This is a cross section of nerve tissue...
It reminds me so much of the fantasy marbles done by Jean Luc Sable of France.
so, look no further than your backyard for inspiration next time you want to be creative...
Cultures have been doing this for centuries!
