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”
Some more fun with cityscape vibes, this time in blue and yellow hues. Given the city theme, I decided to name it after one of my favorite songs by the War on Drugs “Come to the City” (video below).
“Come to the City” by the War on Drugs (live):
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.
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:
I’ve been having fun with these network-like elements and bar-chart style shapes this week and threw this one together last night. I love the different blue hues and how they come together in this one. It feels sort of ominous but also hopeful (kind of the way I view technological progress and AI right now).
I am really liking the mix of digital imagery with movement from natural things and beings. This is one of latest creations in this theme.
I couldn’t decide on which color scheme I like the best, so I made a few other variations:
I put together this odd “cityscape” type of design and made a few different versions and color schemes. Given the city vibe, I decided to name it “city boy’s out of his mind again” pulled from the lyrics of the Disco Biscuits classic “House Dog Party Favor” (of which there are many amazing versions, so it’s impossible to choose one, but here’s a great one from 2002).
some alternate versions:
Continuing with the ocean and waves theme but a new orange and yellow color scheme.
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.
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:
