I have no idea why I called this Circles, but the interior jagged lines were created by creating a relatively tight grid in Gimp and telling the cursor to follow the grid.

The start and end points are on the right, near the top.

seven spirals

After a chat with my friend Patrick, I decided to use gimp to make a maze.  I didn’t really know what to expect, but I hoped it would allow me to easily make something that looked like a drawing done with CAD.  I don’t think it did that, but it pretty handily duplicated a complicated pattern into a 2 x 2 quadruple pattern which I tweaked to make a relatively difficult maze.

Go from one dot to two dots, or the other way around, as you see fit.
