The following is the progress on my study of alternating figure/ground and subsequent pattern development. The concept of alternating figure/ground is best described as when you have a figure(object) and a ground(background) in the picture but you're mind can't figure out which is which, so your mind alternates back and forth between perceiving one color as the ground, one color as the object, and vise-versa.
