1950s Starburst Background

Ah-Ha! Yes, that is a very lovely and authentic representation - well done! Hmm, mm. I too will be on the look-out for more starbursts and the like (in that slow-mo fashion of mine). Nice that you brought it into being. There really are so many fabulous 1950's patterns (and other eras too of course - tons of eras for that matter). "Patterns/Backgrounds" are always thrilling to me. I've been meaning to post about that and one day might do. I wonder if pattern is a built-in way that some brains "see". Say, versus a foreground object. Not sure if I'm making sense but I've really been pondering that.

Though the end product here frustrated me, since it turned out so much smaller than I had intended. I have this odd workaround method using PowerPoint in a way it wasn't really intended, not for middle-management presentations but to make digital art. But saved image files end up much smaller than the work in progress.

Maybe I'll rework it.

Some brains may favor patterns over foreground objects, would be interesting to look up cognitive-science research on this topic. Your PhD thesis, perhaps?
