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:
I have been trying to work more wave shapes into the mix. I put this together and labeled it “whale call”, then changed it to “whale text”, then decided on “whale code.” I really like this one for some reason.
You can grab your own copy here.
I decided to play around with the gradients from the “moon” shapes I created and add a little more “flare.” I really like the way this came out:
I started toying with the idea of offering some of these designs as printable products and threw together a quick storefront for them. Grab your copy of “rhombulus v1” while supplies last. ha!
Continuing the series of mixing greys with bold colors.
one thing I started adding in the orange series were some more “organic” elements (like feathers and plants) which I really like when combined with more technological objects. Lots more like this to follow in future pieces….
