Artist: Sarah West

Whats not to like... this organic/geometric design works perfect. There's balance, porportion and it works perfect in this design even the fact that its not symmetrical. The empty spaces in comparrison with the filled resin spaces, love it.

It's not bright and colourfull, doesn't hurt your eyes when you look at it, it's natural and vintage with a modern twist. It's a very clean design, although it looks like a complicated design, actually turns out to be one line that just keeps on going.

Jewellery piece 2 (dislike):

Gold Cloisonné Ring from middle ages

While doing research for my history presentation, i found this horrible piece, some people might like it, but personally i don't.

It's a big bulky gold ring, don't like gold, like bulky, but this is over the top, maybe without the cloisonné enameling center it would look a bit better. There is too much going on in one piece, sometimes its better to stick to few techniques rather than to try and fit everything into one "little" ring. Like the cloisonné on its own, it's already so much patterns in a limited space, so there is no need for all that gold patterns as well. Maybe it was there style, but i don't think its a good worked out design.

Architecture can be amazing or straight up ugly, and in this case it's amazing :)

In the old days they spent so much time making not only a building, but making it a piece of art. These days its all about money and time, rather than art, which is actually sad.

The fact that it's so old, contributes to the beauty of this amazing building.

This new techno design is u.g.l.y...
New modern designs can be beautiful,fun, nice and exciting designs, but this one is damn ugly.
Maybe in some matrix's technology world this design would work, but not in the modern day normal fashion style. Enough said...
