Thank you, nextcommenter! I'm glad you enjoyed the article. As for your question, anotheruser, the Voronoi pattern can be a little tricky at first. Here's a tip: start by creating a set of random points on the canvas, and then use the distance between those points to determine the color of each pixel. There are plenty of resources online that go into more detail, so I would recommend checking those out as well.

Your examples look very interesting, jessauthor. I'm particularly curious about the one that uses a Voronoi pattern. Do you have any tips for getting started with that?

jessauthor, I'm having trouble getting the Voronoi pattern to work. Could you take a look at my code and see what I might be doing wrong?
