A weekend of absorbing weaving techniques from @catrionapollard … a worthwhile investment of time and focus learning various techniques and experiencing multiple materials. My final pieces were tiny but they’ll make for abundant inspiration. .

Hakea platysperma (Cricket Ball Hakea) … what’s not to love?
Thinking back to my time with ‘Friday Flower Fix’ (part of NAFAS UK) - sharing how I approach simple structures.

A somewhat Art Deco feeling with graphic, overlapping lines in a symmetrical outline. Created for Design Solutions with @flower.thinking .

The differing angles of the lines and redistribution of the flowers in each mirror images creates a mildly different impression. One is more Art Deco - don’t you think? The design by itself feels different again.
Using Disbud Chrysanthemum and Nephrolepis tips - created for the overlapping task in Design Solutions with @flower.thinking .

This handmade pottery container certainly has its challenges - a variety of angles, straight and curved edges, multiple openings of different sizes, two tone decorative glazing … and yet its qualities inspired five designs, each focusing on a different element of design.
Can you guess which design is inspired by which element?
All created as examples for discussion in One Container Five Elements. This fun and enlightening program starts again soon. Link in BIO.

Who knows where my penchant for classical urns comes from (this green one a gift from @leilatrees - thank you). I used it to create examples for One Container Five Elements with @flower.thinking .
Each design was created with a focus on a different element, inspired by the elemental qualities of the urn … its line, colour, texture, form and space. Can you tell which design was made for which element?
The One Container Five Elements program starts again next week. Offered in two time zones. Link in BIO.
