Texture and Shape Inspiration

Yesterday when I took the pictures for color inspiration, I was also took the pictures below. I thought they were really interesting examples of texture and shape. They also looked like alien life forms, but that's another blog post. Anyways, I'm really interested in textures. Maybe that's way I like beads so much. I love the way beads feel and how I can change the texture of a beaded piece by sewing the beads in different ways. Now I'm thinking how I can interpret these textures into beaded pieces.
