This piece is another slightly simpler lacy vase, similar to my most recent piece. In this piece, I continued playing with the contrast between the plain white surface of the paper and the black lacy panels.
The wavy lines in this lacy pattern look fairly freeform, but this was actually one of the trickier lace patterns I’ve done to lay out in a way that actually worked. It was tough to get a balance where there was good variation in the waves so the pattern didn’t look too repetitive, but still avoiding having cutout areas so large that it would be difficult for me to get the lace panels to cooperate while folding. It took me a few rounds of drawing and erasing the lines to find a balance I was happy with.
