Ancient Chinese Bronze Motifs Bandana

I have been drawn to the elegant and mysterious paisley pattern used in traditional bandana designs and wanted to design a pattern as an homage. During my research, I discovered some intricate patterns used in ancient Chinese bronzes. Two motifs stood out to me: the Kui Dragon motif, which depicts a mythological creature in profile, and the Cloud and Thunder motif, which consists of ornamental lines winding in S-forms. Inspired by the layout of traditional paisley bandanas and how these motifs were used in ancient Chinese bronzes, I carefully arranged them to create a new decorative pattern.
