Lydia's entry into Jeane's pattern book.

I noticed a recurring theme of nature in Jeane's book.  The combination of plants and animals sparked an image of red squirrels scampering through the undergrowth at the bottom of my garden.  I love the way their bodies seem to flow in a repetitive wavy movement.  After playing with the sequence of various frozen body shapes, I chose to repeat one particular pose I thought represents this flow that squirrels seem to have.  I have always been attracted to images in multiples, so have simply repeated this single pose to create a surface pattern.
