serinal – project 4 (section C)

my string art isn’t super complex as I didn’t really have a vision of what I wanted it to look like when I started the project, except the fact that I wanted a light color background and a non-super contrasting (color-wise) end product. My favorite part is the little crosshatching component kind of in the background, I think it turned out quite nicely and holds the piece together well in a subtle way. I definitely could get some more getting use to with for loops!
