Patterns



This pattern is argyle. I have worn this pattern on my clothing since I was about 12 years old. This particular image is found on Google Images. I am drawn to this pattern because it has several different layers of diamonds and contrasting colors. Certain parts of the pattern jump out at you depending on how long you look at the image. 




This is the zebrra print pattern, which I also wear regularly in my clothing.I found this pattern on Google Images but I have known of the zebra print ever since the first time I saw a zebra. I like this pattern because of the positive and negative values and the randomness of the stripes. It is interesting for the eye to follow because it is not symmetrical.


This is the tweed pattern which I first saw my dad wear when I was younger. He used to have tweed coats that he would wear around. I like it because all of the colors are somewhat drab and not too different. It is simple and the pattern is interesting. Also there is one color that dominates the other colors because it is most frequently which is why this pattern is so interesting.



I found this pattern online on April 11th on Google Images. I like it because it has vibrant colors of the rainbow, but the brightest color (red) is used the most infrequently because it stands out so much. I like vibrant patterns which is why I am drawn to this particular one.




This is a neon pattern that I found  on Google Images this week which I was immediately drawn to.It is vibrant and almost 3D due to the shading.It almost has a glow-in-the-dark feel, like there are tubes jetting out from every direction. The neon colors makes this image especially standout and confuses the eye.



This is basic cardboard, but the top layer is torn of of some of it. I found this image on Google Images this week and liked it because it shows the slight texture of the material. Cardboard does not have a very noticeable texture, but this image captures the bumpy, linear texture of the cardboard and the precise pattern.






I found this image this week on Flickr. It is a basic tree trunk and it has a very organic pattern to it. There are a very narrow range of colors, only white, brown, and black. This pattern shows a lot of depth to the tree bark. The closer to the eye, the lighter the color. Also it is not a symmetrical pattern so it is clear that this pattern is a natural image.



I found this pattern today on the Vera Bradley website, which is a purse designer. This is a paisley pattern that is surrounded by flowers and dots. I like it because the shapes are not uniform or repeated. There are only a select few colors and there is so much going on. There are flowers inside and outside of larger shapes. Also the texture of the purse, which is the diamonds, adds depth to the already-busy pattern.



I retrieved this image on Google images this morning. I have never seen this image before but I like the way it deceives the eye. Upon first glance, it looks like a bunch of flowers, but the petals that make up the flowers are hearts. It is symmetrical and the colors are very earthy.



This pattern is on Google Images that I saw this week, but it is based on the color wheel. It shows dfferent shades of all of the colors on the color wheel, but becomes more of a pattern because it is based on star-shapes. The outside is circular, but the shades are represented in a more symmetrical form, which is why I was drawn to this image.
