Wording pattern and other colour elements at Track 02

“I make my own tracks.”
Speaking of being on track with ‘repeating a pattern of inspiring words’, this page is a result of some enjoyment I had regarding that. In essence, I decided to take the statement, “I make my own tracks,” and see what kind of new visual art could unfold. I tried various fonts with it, but nothing made a real impression on me. Then I felt drawn to copy the statement and flip it. The mirror image looked like a tire. By continuing, it didn’t take long to see what kind of track I was on…I was making my own!

Pattern is created from only using the words:
MY BIKE TRIP
As for the background colours, I thought it would be fun to have them
represent the various environmental elements, such as what you find on
backroads or off-road trails.
Looks like I’ve created a pattern here…
September 2012 was when all the fun began for me:

AN ERRONEOUS MENTAL REPRESENTATION
Illusion
However, in the end, I decided to not do that because it could be difficult for the viewer to ‘get’ the message. So, from then on, the title is exactly as the words in the body presented. It will act as a clue.
And speaking of clues, I’ll let you in on one, since you were interested enough to read to this point. The pattern is comprised of a series where the 1st sentence gets copied and this 2nd sentence then gets flipped upside down and abutted to the 1st sentence. Then that group gets repeated over and over. I won’t tell you which font I used — let’s leave that as a mystery. Why? Because it’s way more fun for you to discover your own creative side… How? Like the image below says:
