Black Eyed Susan is winding among, through, up and around our native plants again this Spring.  The small orange coloured flowers with dark centres peek out from unexpected places as if the vine is playing hide and seek with those wishing to catch it to remove it.

I decided this repeating perennial climbing plant was a suitable subject for my first ever attempt to create a repeatable pattern.  I started with this  ink drawing:

Black Eyed Susan – #Inktober 14

I then created the basis of a repeat pattern the manual way, in a similar manner to that described here.

Black Eyed Susan Tile – #Inktober 14

then used a photo collage app to group 4 repeats together and ended up with this:

Black Eyed Susan Repeated – #Inktober 14

Thanks Susan!
