Deborah Hartmann Preuss, pccTuesday is coming! \o/💃💐🎉… when I take a break from what seems like *years* of political watchfulness, set some additional mastodon filters, & get back to enjoying the serendipity of social interaction here. Can't wait 🤗Eventually I'll have to check in on what our politicians are doing. And some of it will find its way thru the filters. But my May priorities do NOT include activism.

Deborah Hartmann Preuss, pccCurrent work-in-progress: background for collage - acrylic on an accordion book of brown kraft paper. Up next: collaging some random white-ish elements, and adding scribble marks. Working up to: deep red tulips, eventually, I think! 🤞 We'll see what happens. 🤷‍♀️ <a href="https://cosocial.ca/tags/collage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#collage</a> <a href="https://cosocial.ca/tags/painting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#painting</a> <a href="https://cosocial.ca/tags/artmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#artmaking</a>

Deborah Hartmann Preuss, pccCreating collage fodder - getting ready for tulip season. Managed to spill half a bottle of acrylic ink: Quinacridone Red of course, a staining pigment. Fortunately, my entire work surface is covered in silicone sheets, not a drop on my tables or my turkish carpet.** why, oh, why,do I have a turkish rug in my studio area?

Karsten SchmidtFor anyone interested: Here's an ambiguous set of instructions (in the spirit of Sol leWitt or <a href="https://conditionaldesign.org" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://conditionaldesign.org</a>) for (re)creating a simplified version of the infinitely evolving De/Frag piece (see beginning of this thread).Preparations:0) You may use any suitable medium. 1) Create a pixel-based canvas of arbitrary dimensions. 2) Create a palette of random choice of 4 colors, plus black and white.Repeated steps:3) Choose two random colors from the palette, giving black or white priority. 4) Using the chosen colors, create a random pixel pattern in one of four sizes (e.g. using percentages of the longest side of the canvas as pattern size, e.g. 1%, 2%, 5%, 10%, or 4x4, 8x8, 16x16 pixels...) 5) Choose a random pixel position on the canvas and a random color tolerance. 6) Perform the flood fill algorithm[1] from the chosen start position, selecting all connected pixels within the chosen tolerance. 7) Apply the new pattern (created in step 4) to the pixels selected in step 6, in an order and speed of your choosing. 8) Repeat from step 3[1] The Flood Fill algorithm is described here: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood_fill" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood_fill</a><a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Art</a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/GenerativeArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GenerativeArt</a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/ArtMaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ArtMaking</a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/ConditionalDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ConditionalDesign</a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Instructions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Instructions</a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/SolLeWitt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SolLeWitt</a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/DeFrag" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DeFrag</a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Workshop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Workshop</a>

Deborah Hartmann Preuss, pccI took an art class this week, online, and am excited about the new dimensions it's adding to my way of art-making.

Deborah Hartmann Preuss, pccSo, after trying some other stuff, I'm going to stick to videos about art techniques again today. I figure it's the dopamine without the calories or addiction factor.
