I saw some extremely basic geometric inspiration on Pinterest. Wow, I have grown accustomed to seeing triangles within the hexagon, but this made me look at things quite differently.
I put the hexies on the back of a piece of post-it tape to keep them corralled while I drew.
I started putting the puzzle pieces together and went for a pattern that radiates out from the center.
I tried them out in the honeycomb frame. |
Paradox and Maryhill alternating. |
Did you notice the large hexagon created by the 6 triangles? Too cool!
I temporarily adhered them to some cardstock for watercoloring. |
Now for some watercolor ( I used Derwent Inktense pencils)
I decided to emboss the coverplate on a card with the design (I die cut copper card and then hand cut around the honeycomb Reticula to just frame my design) and add a little stamping ( stamp by Momenta) and embossing powder.
The fox thinks it's a little busy, so I think I'll try again.....
I hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving holiday. Thanks for stopping by.
Am loving your blog! Deana
