Recent warm up experiments in pattern first with paint on paper and then with slip on bats.

"Art is Pattern informed by sensibility" Herbert Read
I found the quote from Tomimoto Kenkichi interesting. I always felt that his patterns were mesmerizing, a combination of natural marks and geometric pattern/order. But I don't quite know how to interpret the quote. I'll have to think on it a while. Your doodles look fun. I like to do the same while "sketching" with slip trailing patterns. Then I erase with a sponge and start over. Sometimes I'll take pictures to help me remember patterns that are interesting.
slip and finger marks no better combination :))
