Ellipses

The multiple ellipses are rotated to form a full circle, the number for each rotation is increased for each ring to change how spread out the individual parts are. This was used to make different patterns when the designs have been completed and to show the different ways they are drawn. The main inspirations were the repeating patterns of fractals that are self similar patterns. An example of this is by Benoit Mandelbrot who discovered the Mandelbrot set in 1961. My design isn't fractal as it isn't repeatedly self similar but the idea of repetition is part of the design.
