I initially really disliked this project. I couldn't quite get a vision for what we were supposed to be attempting. I started out with a geometric pattern, and an organic one similar to the example in the handout. Super boring. I scrapped the first attempt and started over with a new concept: movement. I wanted to show something organic and fluid transitioning into a more brittle form in an unfamiliar landscape. I decided to make it apparent on the organic painting that the cup is in a kitchen, on a kitchen table with dot wallpaper. Once it crossed over onto the geometric side I strove to create more of an alien landscape while carrying over the fluid motion, and patterning of the organic painting. In the end I was pretty pleased with the results. I was nervous with my color choice initially, but I think it ended up contrasting pretty well in a way that isn't shocking.
