What a great abstract Monica. It took me a few seconds to figure out what this was. I like this a lot.

At first i thought it was an aerial view--then my eyes refocused and i figured it out--pretty confusing, and more of a 'patterns' theme than textures--but i like it! :wavey:

as with some other comments, I was having to adjust and readjust until the patterns came together. Fascinating result. I love the image and the texture that is expresses through the patterns,. It really can be a number of different images if you allow yourself to relax and float between interpretations. Excellent! :biggrin:
