\"judy<\/a>Today, we have the pleasure of looking at a similar form and similar elements as yesterday, but with a different approach and result. Yesterday’s repeated pattern was folded circles of clay arranged in a sunburst type of pattern. Well, today we have beads also created with a folded circle, the formation repeated in bead after bead, but all the beads are slightly different.<\/p>\n

In this necklace, polymer artist Judy Dunn uses the repetition of the bead form to connect the otherwise varying elements in this design. The circles used to create the beads have different visual textures on them, as well as being different shades from pearl to deep blue. If the beads had all been slightly different, a more chaotic feeling would have emerged, but between the steady beats of the repeated pattern and the calm colors, we have a shimmery, elegant piece.<\/p>\n

You can see other variation of these repeated forms along with a ton of other projects and materials (a Jill of all crafts she seems to be!) on Judy’s Flickr page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
