As a ‘failed’ complex caner, I am always looking for patterns that can be translated into a simple cane. As you study this painting by Iranian artist, Monir Shahroudy, you can see it is a compilation of small pieces.While this artwork has many of the same design elements of a Zentangle, it was completed in 1980.
HMMMM!!!! Possibly, a complex cane is in my future…bit by bit.

Thank you Laura. Did you follow her link…there were several interesting works that can also be ‘deconstructed’…HMMMMM!!!!!
