Active
This is my take on an active shape. I started with a sharp triangle, and built tons of random parts around it such as spikes on the left, random jagged cut-outs, and arrow-like shapes directing you throughout the picture.

Passive
This is my passive because it is very simple. You just sort of stare at it and your mind just blends the lines together. If you stare at the diagonal lines, you will see the thin black and white lines start to look like they curve and flow together.

Mysterious
This is my take on a mysterious shape. I started with a circle and I wanted to create an optical illusion sort of shape. The circle has black and white lines in it that look like they curve into the white ovals. It gives the circle a weird perspective.

Scrapped & Extras
This was my first attempt. I was not quite sure where I was going with it, so I decided to scrap it. It leans more towards the mysterious side with the mind-boggling movement of oval shapes all over the canvas.

I made this as a second passive because it is very simple. I did not choose this as my main passive shape because it is a bit too simple, and it does not seem 100% complete. I was not sure where to take this one, so I decided to have it as an extra.
