A very pleasing effect with nice color play. It is often best to avoid any repeated texture but often it is the visual impact that counts. The bottom part is very strong and it loses interest as the color blue takes over into pure texture. A tighter crop, say over the top of the right red oval would have raised the interest more. Of course, this will reduce the color harmony. 7
