Edges of Life ■ Tracing Masterpieces

Here's an update on the cattail leave art project. I ran into an issue regarding the edges of the canvas. The leaves are separating and allowing them to come back out. I need to find a way to keep them woven and tight towards the edges. It got me thinking about like as I try to find a solution to the problem. The pattern can be seen in other things surrounding you and you can trace the details to understand what is happening and learn how to deal with it.
