Two overlapping Truchet tilings on a beige or cream background: a dark green tiling of (randomly rotated) diagonal lines, and a dark red tiling of (randomly rotated) pairs of opposing quarter-circles. The overlapping order on each tile is randomly selected, giving a Celtic knotwork-type effect.

Random red diagonal-lines Truchet tiles overlaying random green semicircle Truchet tiles on an off-white background. The overlaying order is also random, producing a Celtic Knotwork-type effect.

Prototype of a #GenerativeArt idea: two Truchet tilings overlaid with a random overlaying order producing a Celtic Knotwork-type effect.

This is a pretty crude prototype and I would want to work this up into a proper #gewgaw if I can find the time.

Image generated by the Colourring gewgaw, of a filled circle consisting of rings of fully-saturated complementary colours across the full spectrum, with some "error" segments which are coloured as if in the wrong ring

Image generated by the Colourring gewgaw, of random patches of a filled circle coloured with fully-saturated colours from the full spectrum

Image generated by the Colourring gewgaw, of random patches of a filled circle coloured with the full spectrum, with some variance of luminosity so that some colours appear muted e.g. brown

Image generated by the Colourring gewgaw of a solid filled disk with many spokes, with fully saturated colours ranging across the spectrum, where the colour of each spoke is complementary with the adjacent ones

Semicircle Jam has been updated to produce a single non-overlapping (at the spine) curve by default - which was the behaviour I originally wanted, but hadn't bothered to implement until now.
