It’s an homage to Ben Nicholson’s White Relief. Not as intriguing as his or as beautifully executed, but I wanted to play with the shadows.

Ditto.It’s like you read my mind!!! I would LOVE an extra week please.
Sounds good to me, too. 2 two.If the judge is happy then let’s do it (before she changes her mind )
I went looking for this on the Pinterest Art Games board but didn’t see it. What’s it all about?View attachment 121482 If anyone wants a go at a lá Mondrian, here’s a grid I found on my travels. I’ll put a copy in the Pinterest Art Games board, too.

I chose Mark Rothko cuz I figured I might succeed playing with colored blocks.

You can also do colour fills by simply dragging the current colour from the colour dot at the top right onto any closed space. You have to sort of pause before you drag the colour and when you have it properly selected you see a coloured circle follow your finger or pencil tip to the area you want to fill. But this only makes solid colour fills. Much easier, though. Called the Colour Drop Tool.Thank you! I knew I saw a tute where they filled in, but couldn’t recreate it!
Rather than feeling anxiety try feeling the excitement of an idea blooming. There’s always the back-step arrow if it doesn’t turn out as planned.View attachment 121536

The Mondrian template is attached below if anyone wants a larger version.
Three of my collages masked in according to the template [colour by] numbers. Then about three million random edits with Hipsta and Shift, tidied up in SnapSeed .
I so want to do one of his M’s trees. I think they’re breathtakingly beautiful. And, for the first time ever, my breezy ‘just play and see what comes up’ is wavering. A bit like in Brian’s invitation to plan a piece - suddenly there’s anxiety about ‘messing it up’ . In an ‘Art Games’ thread, if you don’t mind
ValeriGail, we need your input here
No, I don’t think you need any of the rest. I like the Sketchy brush sometimes in SketchClub which will sometimes lead me there instead of Procreate. And the vector tool.Can I get some info/advice about drawing/painting apps? It’s too hard to learn everything about every app I have, let alone remember what apps I have.
If I already have Procreate, do SketchClub, ArtRage, and InspirePro (etc.) give me anything that Procreate doesn’t have?
Likewise, if I already have Affinity Designer, do Graphic, ArtStudio Pro, GraphPad, Sketches Pro, give me anything I don’t have in Designer?
OK an exception is Skribl - it has some interesting line forms I haven’t seen anywhere else.
Good enough for meWe’ll have to ask sinnerjohn if it ‘qualifies as an abstract’, but it certainly meets our judge’s theme. And I love it. So, what else do you want?
Wonderful. Had to go and look at his work and you’ve paid tribute to it beautifully. I really like the unGlazed one.This is my attempt to try and emulate a Robert Delauney painting. I tried to use his colours as much as possible.

This is one of the versions that came out of Glaze which isn’t really his paint style but which I prefer.

Here’s some of the steps. I started off in IC with the Paint tool using circles.

Then to get some of the paint intersections I made a bw image with squares.
View attachment 121543
I then blended these two images together and ran it through Glaze to get a painterly look. To reduce the strong Glaze look I blended it back in IC with the unGlazed version at reduced opacity.
Marvellous. Mondrian meets Klimt - a perfect combo.View attachment 121536

Wonderful colours and editing on this definitely Turner-esque abstract.(Hoping this qualifies as "abstract")

If Rothko could see this he’d definitely wish he’d thought of it. I love the way that purple-y blue rectangle-y square block in the middle sort of wraps itself over the green.I chose Mark Rothko cuz I figured I might succeed playing with colored blocks.

Thanks, JillyWonderful. Had to go and look at his work and you’ve paid tribute to it beautifully. I really like the unGlazed one.
Have you investigated QuickShape in Procreate. You effectively get a temporary editable vector shape until you tap off of the shape. Quickly draw editable geometric shapes or even more complex shapes and still be able to close the object shape or move the control points around to edit the shape.No, I don’t think you need any of the rest. I like the Sketchy brush sometimes in SketchClub which will sometimes lead me there instead of Procreate. And the vector tool.
You'd be asking the wrong person there, as apparently I'm not qualified for such difficult conundrums.We’ll have to ask sinnerjohn if it ‘qualifies as an abstract’, but it certainly meets our judge’s theme. And I love it. So, what else do you want?
