The piece that helped me find myself and my style.  
In times were lost, we can sometimes find inspiration.

This happened to me.

After starting with digital art back in 2001, I always just played around and enjoyed Photoshop.  
No goal, just enjoying my time creating.  
Thankfully, This helped me become a versatile Designer and art director in my professional career.

But, I never really found a style for myself. 

Then in 2020 the Pandemic hit. I was burned out and strained my back. After weeks of recovery I was feeling at my lowest. I started up Photoshop and doodled these eyes as an expression of how I was seeing the world. A burning ship and I was going down with it.

Once I took a step back and looked at it, I found a spur of inspiration and wanted to continue with this glossy, 2D yet 3D looking hand brushed type of art.

Feeling better than ever before, and not stopping now.  
I am grateful for art and being able to share this with you all. 

Thank you for finding me.

Burning Beginnings

The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) and Cactoid Labs present Remembrance of Things Future Vol. 2: Monica Rizzolli: A Tour of Hypothetical Waterfalls, a generative code-based series created in dialogue with Katsushika Hokusai's iconic 19th c. woodblock prints, A Tour of Japanese Waterfalls in LACMA's collection. Remembrance of Things Future engages artists working on the blockchain to reimagine the museum's collection. Building on the museum's experimentations with art and tech, LACMA and Cactoid Labs invited pioneering digital artists to select objects from the museum's holdings and create new digital editions inspired by a diverse selection of artworks. Utilizing tools such as generative code, and dynamic software the artists created unique works that engage histories across various eras. Following the museum's tradition of collaborating with artists to create limited editions, a percentage of the proceeds from these new digital editions will support LACMA's Art + Tech Lab.

Exhibition

Prepare a rectangular or square canvas. Pick one or two sets of pigments. Plot one or two fields of slightly irregular dots, with one layer for each pigment. Offset each layer slightly, horizontally or vertically. Apply a level of randomness to the placement of each dot so that pigments in lower layers can obscure pigments in higher layers. Optionally, divide and displace the randomness in rectangular patches.

Click on press the image and press 1-5 to export the image in increasing resolution. Note that browsers have different upper limits for canvas size. There are five different aspect ratios: 1:1, 5:8, 8:5, 1:2, and 2:1.

*Fields* is part of the group exhibition *Imperfections*.
