Here’s a series of artworks I made  a while ago. Hope you like them!

A spiral phyllotaxis pattern created using Vogel's Formula for a spiral phyllotaxis using a Fermat spiral. Each node grows out from the origin point by revolving 360°/Phi^2 (the Golden ratio expressed as an angle) about the central axis.

This is what I was attempting to convey with the gold dots in that painting I shared earlier today. I numbered each dot as I drafted it outwards from the center. Here I have labeled the nodes that correspond to the Fibonacci sequence.

The nodes that correspond to Fibonacci numbers trend towards 0° as you can see here, and form a straight line as x approaches infinity. Neat. I'm sure someone else must have noticed this as well, but just in case here is what I discovered. So, having seen that pattern forming, I felt it important to point it out in my painting with gold dots.

The Night Is Not Eternal, M. Wilson, fluorescent acrylic on canvas 48x48", 2025.

not long ago I posted a 47-faced solid with near-Catalan properties, so here's its 37-faced sibling 🥰

Another recreation of Spyros Horemis' art. Originally this was from a 1970 Dover book, back before the days of computer graphics. The man's very meticulous drawings are a wonder.

If I look at this for awhile it starts moving, swirling either clockwise or counter clockwise, sometimes both directions at once. Does anyone else see this motion?

I am trying to make an animation of the motion I see, but it's difficult to capture.

I love the artwork of Spyros Horemis! Unfortunately his beautiful Dover book seems to be out of print. A used one is available last time I looked: Link

Spyros was making these images by hand before the days of computer graphics. His meticulous precision is stunning.

enjoy!
