The other layouts are too "angular" which doesn't make sense as this version has lots of angles too, but that's the best description I can give it. Water version 1 would be really interesting if some sort of allusion to land could be made to make the center strip look like a flowing river but at this point--too angular :)bekhynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593114644785141187.post-69173617984714016532009-08-15T12:43:30.356-06:002009-08-15T12:43:30.356-06:00i like this one better than version 1. i like how ...i like this one better than version 1. i like how it starts in the middle and works out.Amanda Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06311818385469850186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593114644785141187.post-47141880574862902832009-08-05T08:55:07.582-06:002009-08-05T08:55:07.582-06:00Me too..I like this one better than the 1st one.

Sadly, I don't seem to have developed the skill of saying what I do and don't like about art and creative things - I just like it or I dont!

It give it a nice movement and makes it look less like a basketweave and more watery.<br /><br />What if the vertical strips in the middle were a little offset from each other?Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05252548374309659800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593114644785141187.post-73689299338437613282009-08-04T14:22:05.859-06:002009-08-04T14:22:05.859-06:00I agree this one has more movement.
