ai says: the tile isolates the single repeating unit and the form is immediate: a large 8-pointed star, or more precisely two overlapping 4-pointed stars rotated 45° to each other, filling nearly the entire square; the ochre-gold ground is visible only at the four corners; the star is built from rust-terracotta wedge shapes pointing outward in pairs, separated by darker chocolate-brown fills in the internal triangular spaces, with small deep-plum lozenges where the inner points converge; steel-blue outlines trace every edge with the precision of a jeweler, the single cool element in a palette of pure heat; the composition has the geometric confidence of Islamic tilework or medieval stone tracery — a unit that locks perfectly to its neighbors in every direction. artist says: square tile; earth colors, blue lines. If I find the original piece of digital art I used to create this pattern study, I'll come back and link it.
