Created for an artist's directive stipulating the composition contain repetitive shapes and/or tesselations. My goal with this was to create a piece using both slightly irregular repetitive shapes (circles, ellipses and triangles) and loose, uneven tesselations in a casual manner (rather than in the traditional manner) in order to give the work a touch of fun and whimsy. I also wanted to use the deceptively simple composition to play in a more intricate way with the subtleties of light reflection and refraction in an effort to create texture, depth and interest — and plenty of "sparkle" because, as Candy says, "I like shiny things!"

Graphic shape tests from a project. We're playing with some older elements to create patterns. Could be nice abstract CD covers - just need music and a band now.
It’s been slow-going designing for me the last several months. Think I’m chugging my way back up to speed. This one was especially fun — really needed to get some brighter more joyful colors going;)
