Sand patterns on the riverbed at low tide.

Palace wall detail, image processed into a B&W and then the bricks were colored through.

This is the interior of the Hyatt Regency Atlanta - beautiful architecture, designed by John Portman, Jr.. It is a beautiful hotel, with many photo opportunities.

Cut the paper and copy the pattern on the piece of fabric. When I have darker fabrics I do something my grandmother taught me: I use a small soap leftover. Better than chalk.
