Vortex Origins #4
The next two experiment with different scales. I was trying to make the "eye of the storm" more interesting than a simple circle. It turned out to be kind of self-destructive. Viewer focus moves to the storm center, which is not that interesting and kind of disappointing. The interesting features away from the storm center are missed.
Vortex Origins #6
This one is getting close to the right recipe. More colors, especially the addition of black and white distributes the viewer's focus. The storm centers suggest something interesting, but are too small make out the details. (Thus sidestepping my problem of providing the detail.)
At the time, I was feeling the need for more violence and chaos. See View Near Vortex #2. So I added more broken pieces, with more and darker colors and started on The View Near the Vortex.
Looking at this one now, it could be the starting point for a series. I like the colors, and while there is a lot going on, it is not as crowded and broken as the Vortex series. I might return to it next year.
