digital art: more fun with city vibes – “miami splice” vs “miami bleach”

I am still having some fun with the “cityscapes” designs and wanted to play around with some new color combinations. I decided that both of these had Miami Beach-themed color schemes and couldn’t decide which one I liked better.

“Miam Splice”

“Miami Bleach”

digital art: “lunchpad” – fun with bugs and electronics in purple hues

I have been toying around with this one on and off for a while and finally feel like it is close to “done.” In this one, I repeated some of the same electronic, circuit board themes from previous pieces, but this time, I added some “beings” to the mix.

digital art: “flown ablue” – fun with movement and blue hues

I have been doing some new takes on the “city” theme I started a few weeks ago with “City Boy’s Out of His Mind Again.” But for this one, given all the movement, “flying” vibes and blue hues, I decided to call it “flown ablue” (which is actually the name of my good friend Dave’s college band that I always loved). So, perfect time to give a shout-out to the David B. Smith Gallery in Denver (which was started by said Dave).

I actually can’t decide which version I like better, so here’s the alternate:

digital art: odd cityscape in blue and red (“city boy’s out of his mind again”)

I put together this odd “cityscape” type of design and made a few different versions and color schemes.

some alternate versions:

digital art: “above the waves”

Here’s one of my favorite new creations. I am not going to overthink it and will just let it speak for itself (in other words, I am at a loss for words as far as a description).

That said, I should clarify that the name — “Above the Waves” — is pulled directly from one of the marquee songs from the Disco Biscuits rock opera “Hot Air Balloon” which the band created in the late 90s.

digital art: slightly robotic creations (titled “save the robots”)

I created a whole series of images based on this same theme and decided to call them “Save the Robots” as I was listening to this long mix of old live tracks by the Disco Biscuits at the time (“Save the Robots” is the name of probably one of their weirdest yet most interesting songs). Here’s one of my favs:
