The first photo is my geometric pattern. First of all I liked this one because it is both abstracted while being representative. It’s abstracted because it is just a simple repeating triangle, but due to the nature of the colors they’re representative of a forest. The colors, although some have an orange-ish tint, are cool colors. I look at this pattern and instantaneously think of a forest in the winter. The reading states that a pattern consists of points, lines, or grids, and this one has lines and grids. It is simple in that in only has one repeating element. It changes color, but it does not change scale or orientation.

For the organic pattern, I chose one I found on a blog called, “Trendvee.” This one is a little more complex than the geometric, but similar in that they both look hand made. This pattern changes in orientation throughout the composition, and has a warmer feel to the colors, even though there are blues and greens.I think this is because the magenta over takes the turquoise and the “white” color is slightly orange. Rather than grids, this pattern consists of lines. It is very repetitious, but not at all uniform. I also love how dynamic this is and it looks 3D.
