Skillfully Decorative Folds

We featured some of Zuzana Liptáková‘s earrings constructed from folded polymer shapes last year. She keeps improving her designs with little extra touches. The little leaves, dot accents and color combination here, add to the overall design and give a dancing effect to her creations. She makes flowers with flat shapes by stacking them in detail patterns.
Take a look at her website and her Flickr pages for more views of her work.

Focusing on the Floral Form
June 6, 2013
Inspirational Art
When we think floral, we tend to think of colorful arrangements. But a large part of the beauty of flowers and all types of nature’s decorative plants is the form they take–the slim stems, the folding leaves, the delicate thinness of a flower petal. Even colorless, they would be beautiful.
These lotus flower interpretations by Zuzana Liptáková of the Slovak Republic have such an elegant complexity to them, with a focus almost wholly on form. I think holding back on the colors is exactly what was needed here to show off the carefully crafted, folded, and layered petals.
When it comes to flowers, going a little wild with the color is a natural inclination, and rightly so; but sometimes, pulling back will allow us to further appreciate the beauty in the other characteristics of Mother Nature’s masterpieces.
