Art, day eight

[kerravonsen]

Day eight, naarmamo:
Yesterday was so hectic I didn't post anything, though I did do things, multiple things which I post for yesterday (and another post for today will follow).

This post is to display me having fun making desktop tiles by playing with GIMP's "random blends" filter.

Very nice! I'll have to check out that feature. I was thinking of having some general purpose abstract icons.

Thanks!

Yep, it's fun. Filters -> Render -> Random Blends The results are often as not ugly and/or dull, but you just undo it and try again.

Horses for courses, I guess. I Never was much one for abstract art. The occasional one will do it for me, but these fall among the majority that don't. THe second one comes closest as it starts to look like space art.

I think I fall for pretty colours and shapes anyway. I know when I'm let loose in a haberdashery store, I always seem to make a beeline for my favourite colours (such as deep purple) and only secondary consideration of what the actual cloth is made of...
