Small square truchet pattern - 27 May 2025

Square Truchet

Well, the ‘original’ pattern, or the simplest one perhaps. After the mega-hexagonal previous one, I wanted to just try out a square-symmetry pattern on a small scale.

This is the base painting, with red ink.

Final version

On top of the red (and on top of the yellow, in the other parts) I put varnish then blue with medium. This was structure gel, which is interesting but not amazing.

Actually, this came out very nicely. Much simpler and clearer than the larger hex pattern. Nice colours as well. Just goes to show, I suppose, that the end product is not as a result of the effort put in.

Oh and yes I know I missed one of the curves.
