Ripples Sketchbook Spreads 4 to 6

I continued with rings of asymmetric growth from the origination points, altering which direction the objects grew in.  I really like the movement in these and will probably return to this variation of the motif.

But the next day I felt like combining circles with ovals, or origination dots with origination lines.  The ovals made me think of eye, so I played that up a bit on the next doodle, putting in an eye, nose, and mouth.

I stepped back a bit to see what happened when I placed the origination points in more orderly lines.  It was very difficult to keep the ripples circular instead of just arcs duplicating the previous arc.  My eye wanted to play tricks on me.

I have the first page on the next spread done and have started trying to add in a bit of color.

Go back and see the first three spreads.
