Christmas Markets

Looking a bit more into my interest in sparkles and texture, my housemate and I took a trip to the Manchester Christmas Markets. Catching my eye were the arrays of bauble decorations and the use of fragmented glass upon candle holders. I also looked through my photographs from last year's trip to the Munich markets, and again, I appeared to take interest in the shapes and collections of decorations. Baubles to me, remind me of large scale jewellery pieces, especially the ones produced with fragments of glass. I like looking at the textures that they have, and how the light reflects from them.




These photographs will be used as part of my mood boards, looking at the textures and forms created.
