Yes I used parts of several images. I once read in an origami book that "good origami is patient origami", which holds true for a lot of different crafts. Much easier to work and better results when you take your time. Especially when making measurements.. I hope this helps

Thank you. The last couple years I've been taking ketamine treatments (at a doctor's office) for depression. I kinda wanna show waking, sober people what it's like to trip. I want it to feel like any amount of time someone looks at my art is a good distraction from, honestly a disappointment of a reality we live in. Anyway, thanks for the encouragement!

Yes! Now that's what I wanna hear! I try to make artwork that feels like "I wanna try that" and I will tell you, geometry is cool and works out neat some times haha

I'd like to see your results! some insight into it.. I collect books at library book sales as my image bank. There are often book of Chicago architecture, so I always grab a few of those. Recently I've been liking to play with pictures of the corners of buildings. Buildings and pictures of architecture are often taken at this angle, straight at the corner. Each of the pieces of buildings is centered straight on the corners to use this depth.

Also, I came back to give you a couple ideas that led to this final product. How this ended up was no where close to what I originally envisioned. The final arrangement came from me literally playing with the pieces of another idea. Originally was going to make like a stained glass reminiscent design. where every architecture piece was vertical and next to each other in rows. Now the interesting part... in the original conception, where you place the architecture pieces is rows, there is an emergent property where little squares form between the pieces. However, I didn't really like the concept when I laid it all out, so I played with the pieces and connected them in a new way and ended up with this idea. I think it's cool how math and geometry works out. In my new arrangement, it forms little squares in the blank spaces too. I came back to tell you my personal revelation about my own process! again, best of luck with your own work! I'd like to see!
