Birmingham Library - further exploration of design ideas

Drawing made by isolating an area from pictures of the Birmingham library decorative surface using 2 card L's as a viewfinder.  This makes for more dynamic star shapes, and shows a layering of these shapes of varying scale which adds depth & movement. The original photo  was taken at an angle so the shapes appear pleasantly distorted and less regular/formal.

Graphite stick, sketched into with eraser, and worked back into with pencil to add darker tones and definition.
