This one is very busy. But the restrained use of color, along with the fuzziness, reduces the noise. The larger blue/brown/gray shapes draws one in. Then you start to notice and seek out the details hidden in the fuzz.

As with most of the other "Zone" series, this one originated while working on other things. The next few are (or are very close to) the items I set aside. I liked them, but they did not fit with what I was working on at the time because of the fuzziness. They serve as the initial seeds for this series.

The Fuzzy Zone

I am staying with the hard to describe, and always evolving, zone shapes. Let's enter the Fuzzy Zone. In the other zone sets, the shapes had definite, often outlined, edges. Those sharp boundaries are gone now.

The "Fuzzy" criterion does not have a definite definition. It is not a sharp, nor a smooth blended color, transition between shapes. It may appear as similar to painting on fabric, an out of focus view, spray paint, painting on a non-uniform rough surface, or shaky brush strokes.

"Similar to", but not exactly like any of those things.

I was finished with set. Really. But then, while working on something else, I got the urge to create a few more. So here is a short extension.

The last two do not fit with the zone theme. Here, the features are laid out on a regular grid. I include them because I made these at the same time, and with the same colors, as the previous ones.
