I decided it would be fun to start a new challenge for myself this year (and anyone else who fancies watching or joining in) - to try and create or find something new every day for the whole year...
I am fascinated by patterns and shapes and these are where I find a lot of my inspiration for my jewellery designs, so it seemed logical to do a daily pattern.
The rules I have set myself are primarily just that I must post something every day for the whole of 2017. The images must be photos I have taken - either as they are, or edited and adapted - but my own, and they must show some sort of repeated or abstract pattern or shape that intrigues me.
Pretty quickly I decided to make these collages of patterns that work together or contrast in some way and i'm really loving some of the images I have come up with. I haven't given myself themes for the months as I rather like the way these patterns are showing an organic sequence of the types of things I have been looking at over the month.
Here is my first collection - my 31 January images - they are quite varied, but they all give something that intrigues and inspired me - hopefully some will inspire you too!
