Patterns are everywhere! From the digital and print sources to nature. Anything can become a pattern. What a broad topic!

I tried several patterns and media types. I won't even include how many I made. This was harder than I imagined. I ended up prefering markers and geometic shapes. I can't decide which one is my favorite. What do you think?

I was going for an aztec feel with this one. I really like triangles. Can you tell?

I'm not in love with the way you can see all of the marker lines, but I do enjoy the colors and shapes of this one. It's like a honeycomb.

This one was fun but got a little sloppy at the end. More triangles of course. Overall, I liked the patterns challenge. It's definitely not my strong suit but sometimes that is fun. What do you think about my doodles? Did you make some art with patterns? Share it with me at This email address is being protected from spambots.

April Huggins

I'm April. I'm a mom of two, a wife, homemaker and an artist. I believe anyone can be an artist. I love DIY projects, creating art and decor for my house or my friends and homemade gifts. A lot of times my friends say things like "You're so Crafty. I could never do that." Well I am artistically inclined, but most of the time, projects I do involve mainly time and know how. I love sharing the lessons I've learned from my family, the fun I've had with my friends and the art that I create. So come spend some time with me and I'll share what I've learned, my unique ideas, and my favorite places to look for ideas. Stay Crafty!
