I mean, the stars and the other shapes (little like a fur rug) are ok. So I thought when It was painted with more repetition it would look better. However …
Going back to gouache was nice, and the boring geometry was simple enough to paint:
But … it’s so dull! I guess the lesson here is that Islimi or other elaborations on the basic geometry exist for a reason :)
