Kaleidoscope Patterns

Trying to do a little stress management during this last week of the year has led me to creating these repeating shapes of kaleidoscope patterns. I choose a muted orchid color since the burst of radiant orchid began the year as Pantone's color for 2014. The color has done it's job for 12 months and no doubt will continue to appear even though 2015 will herald in Pantone's color of the year named Marsala. The challenge will be to pair up Marsala with other compliments to bring it to life. Meanwhile, it's adios to radiant orchid for now and back to creating more kaleidoscope patterns for stress relief. It's a lot more fun for me to dream up patterns than to attempt to sit in meditation!
