And here is Curve Textures #2 recolored.

Here I revisit Curve Textures #12 with coordinated colors.

In this image there is more coordination between the colors and the texture than in the previous.

Several more follow without words. I am just being lazy, and too often I just say what is obvious in the picture.

If you put words in the comments, I will add words to the post.

The background color is just there. It is remotely related to the texture pattern. Right now, I am more interested in the texture / shading. So I did not put much effort into the background colors.

I am revisiting some ideas from earlier in the Workshop 202306 series. Here I am using curves and lines to create shading and shadows. In the past I would have drawn the curves using different colors. That shadowing creates quite a different impression (unintended, but serendipitous, pun).

This is almost a continuation of the Workshop series. But that series was getting long, and there are enough of these with a common theme, so I am breaking them out into a new series.

Well, the blog has been idle for a week now. I have been busy with other stuff, and just feeling lethargic in general. None of that has really changed.

But if I indulge in the laziness it takes over, so I need to push through it. So I am posting something today.

Same set up as Workshop 202306 #28 . Compare blend and paint-over.

It is not easy putting these together. The idea is simple enough: different color schemes on a common formula. But I wrote the program first, and came up with this idea later. Currently there are a lot of picky details involved to make sure the two layers are compatible in the above sense.

I will refactor the program to better fit the layers-with-common-formula idea later. Then next few images use the same formula, and the same two basic layers, but with small changes to the coloring methods. Mainly in the density of the top layer.

Normally I would try for more variety. Different palettes, different formulas. But this series is called "Workshop" for a reason. While working, behind the scene, I just turn on knob at a time.
