Tessellated star mosaic

A faceted star grows through staggered triangular bands to a ring of nested diamonds. Stepped arrow-shaped panels form an angular crown around the mosaic.

How much detail?

Many small triangular tiles, nested diamond borders and narrow arrow panels create detailed coloring spaces across the circle. About the labels.

Try this palette: Evening contrast

Try alternating blue and gold triangles, then use terracotta only in the diamond centers. Leave a few narrow borders cream to separate the tiled bands.

A small coloring tip

Use a sharp pencil for the tile corners. Color neighboring tiles in separate passes so their boundaries remain easy to see.

Choose a color rule for each tile band: alternating colors, a three-color sequence, or light and dark versions of one color.
