Ornithographies

 

Ornithographies are the things you are drawing on a piece of paper when you’re distracted.

 

They are small repetitive spiral or circular patterns or shapes, symbols etc, with no initially intention to become drawings – but they eventually acquired a specific form…

 

Towers, flowers, powers, showers and various other shapes one usually encounters in weaving traditions of the world…
