Orange-Brown

Going back to the fuzzy and curving lines for the underlying pattern.

Orange-Yellow

More lines and diamonds.

Blue-Cyan

OK, you caught me. The diamonds are really a crisscrossing tilted line grid. But at least they are straight lines

Red

Red accents on the same, but larger, diamond pattern as yesterday.

Yellow

Today's feature color is yellow. I am taking a small step away from fuzzy lines. Instead yellow is used to highlight an array of only slightly fuzzy diamond shapes

Red-Purple (with pink in the middle)

Adding purple brings out the fuzzy-line pattern better. Probably not my favorite, normally I would probably do this in browns. But in the name of color equity, I am going with purple today.

Red-Pink

Here I borrow from the recent "fuzzy line" series for the abstract background pattern, then highlight with red and pink.

The fuzzy, out of focus, appearance is by design. With these colors, I think it is too saturated. Perhaps someone who loves pink will appreciate it more.

Purple-Pink

I do not hate any particular color, but I do not use all color equally. I have no idea why color equality would even be a goal.

Black/brown/blue seems to be my "go-to" color combination. Obviously not exclusively, just as a starting point. Green and purple are kind of rare in my art. So I offer this and the previous work to repair the slight I have given those fine colors.

Green

No, I do not actually hate any colors. Each color has a meaning, each invoke an emotional response. This is the first of a series of reduced palette abstractions.

And a third variant

Second of three color variants

Fuzzy, out of focus, abstraction.

Another shape using the same ideas as the earlier posts.

Tighter groups

Event less density.

Bigger or close up.

Less line density

And a Fractal

A quick digression today. I had this queued up with the Workshop group last month, but never got around to publishing it. So better late than never.

I combined the fuzzy line idea with a fractal. I am pleased with the result in the big and normally flat areas on the outside. However the inner "capture set" portion is too busy. The fine detail curlicues are masked by just noise.

There should be a way to gradually transition from the blended lines coloring on the outside to traditional escape-time fractal coloring on the inside. I will explore that at some unspecified future date.

Smaller features, or more distance viewpoint.

Similar to yesterday's, with bigger features.

I have several of these with the similar colors and shapes with variations in feature size and density. As usual, I cannot decide which I like best so I am going to post several variants, with minimal comment.

Fuzzy Lines

I just finished posting 29 images that I created in December. Initially I saw these as a collection of odds and ends, experiments, with no overriding theme or story. But as I struggled to add words to the images, I started to discover connections, and potentially some stories. I was then, and still am, too lazy to provide a decent organization. So they will probably forever be "Workshop 202012".

As I was preparing the previous set to publish, I was also discovering additional things to explore. So here is a new set, similar to the old set, with better categorization.
