Weekly Photo Challenge: From Lines to Patterns
Intriguing and challenging! Lines to patterns are found in nature, artwork, architecture, and many other parts of life.

I really love how that street artist used threads to create a painting. Very creative! Modern art can be very fascinating, at the same time enigmatic.
Thanks. I’m glad you like the street artist as his thread paintings were truly spectacular. He used a curved needle, and as you can see, he “sewed” right from the cones of thread. Someone told me that he can sell the paintings in New York for a high price, and I hope that is true because he certainly deserves it.
I am amazed at the number of people in Oaxaca that are involved in creative activities.
Lovely images Marilyn! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Diane. Those little mushrooms dyed wool a beautiful intense brick red. I just need more of them!
Wow, that last photo could cross one’s eyes!
If you would like to see photos of the castillo in action, look at the post from Jan. 21, Life is a Blast. A castillo is truly a sight to behold!
So many interesting photos. I was very impressed about the mushroom photo. It is like art work.
