A few more follow. No sharp edges or texture lines.

Despite the previous comments (Janus #28), I do not want to abandon this idea yet. Here I stick with the blended, blurred colors, but with more going on. The line between "blurred background", and "intriguing abstract art with blurred colors" may be hard to define. I am comfortable that this one is on the good side of that line.

These images do not seem to going anywhere. They might make good backgrounds, but they are not too exciting. Perhaps someday I may use them as background in my art.

It seems like everything today has a blurred background, phone screens, websites, computer operating systems. Kudos to whoever did it first, but now it is just repetitive.

The previous piece stood out in my mind because of the smooth blending of translucent colors. It also had sharp edges and a few texture lines. I decided to remove the edges and lines and then focus on the color blending.

Here is another one that was set aside and forgotten. I have resurrected it and generated a few variation for the current series.

It has smooth blending colors, with larger regions introducing new colors.

I like when there is a noticeable change in density across an image. But after letting the previous work mature for a few days, it started to feel like I tried to cram in too much. Here is a (not wholly accurate) "zoom" of the central figure.

Here is a something with a slightly redder palette.

The yellow-gold palette again, but I did not try to fill up the whole page.

I looked through the Metallic Flow series trying to determine if I had already published the previous two. Of course, I am easily distracted. Here are two new ones inspired by Metallic Flow #6.

I have notes that list this one and the next as published. But I cannot find them on the website. I created these around the Metallic Flow time period. I may have decided that they did not fit at some point.

Anway, they are too good to waste, so I am publishing them now, with a little tweaking and cleanup.

Bright colors, with a dark/light struggle.

Thinner shapes here, mostly lines.

I rescued the previous two mainly because I likes the yellow / gold palette. It does not make sense then that the next thing I did was change to colors. But I did. Up next are two new ones with similar shape and more colors.

Here are two from the Metallic Flow series. They did not make the cut the first time around. I really like the color scheme, so I am adding them to the current collection.

Next up are a couple that were experiments with texture. I do not know where they fit in the chronology.

The last time I made a major program change moving from .Net4 to .Net6.

That was a significant change. It was a breaking change, it came with no backward compatibility, and no automated tools to port code to the new version.

I think this was an early experiment designed to test the new software. I was in programmer mode then, not artist mode. I thought it was good enough to save and publish later.
