Abstract Thursday - Repetition

This is a freshly picked bowl of sweet peas after I have spent a pleasant hour messing about with it.  The un-messed-about-with version is added as an extra.   I knew what I was looking for when I started, got lost somewhere along the way, now I have no idea what is going on.  However I quite like the finished effect.
Thank you Ingeborg for hosting the abstract challenge so well.
