Colors I Hate #13

Yellow

The smooth shape from yesterday's picture, with some craggy mountains.

Random Digression Time: I am trying to create some new fractals. However my new fractal ideas have been producing underwhelming results. I will get something eventually, fortunately every failure generates several new ideas to try. Also the Muses have been pointing me toward these simple abstract images. I find them fascinating, but they also distract me from my investigation of chaos. Anyway, I am confident, or at least hopeful, that these two tracks will merge someday soon.

Colors I Hate #14

Blue-Green

So, yesterday I rambled on about fractals, chaos and abstraction. Perhaps this image was building up in me and I had to let it out. Certainly a lot of chaos here, but also abstract and limited palette. Feels good to just go wild.

Colors I Hate #15

Red

More pixel dust. During my early experiments with this I started thinking I might need two colors. The red "sand" seemed too uniform. But I am focusing on limited palettes in this series and started out thinking "today is red day". Adding another color was not an option. So I stuck with it and eventually everything came together.

Also, still getting my chaos fix.

Colors I Hate #16

Blue

Back to the simple smooth shape from a few days ago.

Colors I Hate #17

Orange

Is this the same as yesterday, but a different color and straight lines instead of curved lines? Or is it something completely different? My intention was the former, but now it seems like a stretch to claim that the two images are related.

Colors I Hate #18

Pink

A couple more variations on the simple curvy shape. Here a little bit larger and in pink.

Colors I Hate #19

Orange-Yellow

Even bigger close up

Colors I Hate #20

Purple-Pink

Here is another shape I came up with for the "coloring book". The simpler version used in the previous images won out. Still this one deserves at least an honorable mention.

I think I am at the end of the "Colors I Hate" series. I was not methodical in picking out the colors. I started out selecting colors at random. Midway through I tried using a color wheel and color theory to select colors. The results were disappointing. Possibly because I was not being careful and not selecting the right colors. It might be interesting to do this with properly and precisely selected colors based on color theory. But not now.
