6 views, not 3

Ok, I've finally finished the first round of mountain surfacing.


I've decided the next step should be priming the surface with gesso to even out the colour to look for areas needing improvement. 


When I sat back to look at the thing I realized the trefoil planform offers 6 basic views, not 3. I was fixated on the lobes, of which there are 3, but completely ignored the negative spaces, of which there are also 3.


Well, look, even 6 views isn't the limit. There are an infinite number of views, but there are 6 basic viewpoints.


Negative space. It's easy to overlook.


Well, I need to head back to the grotto to see if there are any more spaces that need looking into. I'll leave you with The Belle Stars:
