The Cracked Canvas of Nature

I’m drawn to these dry mud patterns because they evoke the appearance of old, peeling wallpaper, revealing layers of texture shaped by time and decay. Each crack and curl hints at a slow, natural process, as if the earth is shedding its layers. The patterns feel organic yet carry a resemblance to something man-made, blurring the line between natural formation and artistic creation.
