Fields Notes of a Square Spotter
Always gladdened by a splotch of color on grey pavement, I spotted these gaudy quadrilaterals of an evening in downtown Portland, Oregon. Slightly fotoshopped for a painterly patina, just because.

In Progress
Been reading about Archimedes recently. I can't help it, I like geometry even though I'm hopeless at it. And what better place to see shapes and angles at work than at a building site?

Garage Doors: Let's Be L7
Who you calling a square?
These little guys are subtle puppies. You might have to click to enlarge this picture for a good glimpse of the quarry.
Much the same except they're crawling up the side of the door rather than scuttling along the bottom. (Go Air America!)
I like this square-within-a-square motif. Bold, and yet...
You might do a double-take and take this for a star at first, but of course it's "four-square."
No mistaking this one -- solid, Jack!

Garage Doors: Chummy Quadrilaterals
A few examples of squares hooking up with rectangles for some driveway do-si-do.
OK, that's cool.
Not as busy, but twice the fun.
Yike, they're multiplying!

Garage Doors: X Meets Frankenstein
Now we have a palette of basic shapes to work with, let's mix and match!
It might start out as a simple X motif...
...but by clever positioning you subliminally add, say, a diamond...
...or a chevron or two...
...or a rectangle or two...
...or some squares and more diamonds...
...or what the hell, a mess of bars, rectangles, and fancy windows...and look out.
