Flock of birds, inspired by the art of Escher. I think this will be my last artwork in this series.
#mathart #geometry #tiling #octagonal #escher

Drawing of birds radiating from the center, octagonal symmetry. Birds are whitish and blackish, over a light cyan background.

This one uses somewhat the "inverse" tile of previous piece mathstodon.xyz/@DaniLaura/1145 .

Another one more elaborate, with these colours it resembles fire. With other colours could be birds joining into the center.
#mathart #geometry #tiling #octagonal

Drawing using curved concave tiles which insert into each other, octagonal symmetry. Colours from yellow to red, resembling fire.

I have been having fun trying other tiles using scaling r = √(1+1/√2) with octagonal arrangement (see previous post
mathstodon.xyz/@DaniLaura/1145 ).
Using the curved tile we can see in the pictures, the complete arrangement is rather boring (image 1), but subsets of it, when properly coloured, can produce several kinds of flowers, even with bees! (image 2), an ibex head (image 3), or just using the borders a web of a math spider (image 4).

Octagonal tiling with curved and pointed tiles, decreasing in size towards the center, yellow and violet colours.Two flowers using the same curved tile, the first is similar to lavender (purple petals), the second with many reddish petals and a bee on top.Same tiling depicting an ibex head, brown colors.Same tiling depicting a math spider web.

No one is asking the hard questions: #Octagonal in plan or in section?

I for one welcome our #octagonal overlords.
