This assignment we are suppose to create an image of a flower
using p5 Web Editor. Using this we are able to create images based
on the codes implemented.
This is my flower drawing. I didn't want to over complicate myself
in trying to come up with a flower drawing, so I just used my
mom's orchids as reference and played around with the composition
of the flower. I focused a lot in finding the right position where
the flowers would sit on the stem, or where the petals would be
placed around the center part of each flower. Overall, I find this
assignment very stimulating, has me thinking more mathematically,
when it came to finding the right position. Below is a rough
skecth of the flower I wanted to create. I used it as a guideline
when finding the placement for the lines and shapes.
2. Line for Line
For this assignment we are experimenting with line patterns on p5
Web Editor.
This is the first part I did for the assignment. I just wanted to
lay down the basic part of the background and foreground.
For this second image I just wanted to put a set of sinusoidal
lines for the first part, I plan pon rearranging the lines so it
is lesss uniform but for now it will be in this pattern
I put another set of sinusoidal lines onto the foreground, I am
hoping to put one more set and then rearrange it so it becomes
more abstracted.
This is the final image i have for this assignment. I just shifted
the lines to the right of their original positions in an
arithmentic sequence to bring in some depth to the waves.
3. Computational Conversion
In this assignemnt we are to replicate a physical work of fine art
using p5 Web Editor.
For this project I didn't want to use an image that was too
complicated. I chose to replicate Julian Sanczak's Green Light,
1973. It was definitely frustrating at first trying to get the
numbers right, but I think I got the image close enough
In this assignmnet we experimented with different materials in
order to create our own unique brush, ad then use p5 Web editor to
recreate it onto a digital platform.
Part 1~
These images are of my handmaid brish. I used 7 cotton swabs and
used tape to wrap them together. I used ink to stamp onto the
skecthbook page as well was make a few strokes. The brush ended up
absrobing more ink than I had expected so it appeares pretty heavy
on the page. i wasn' really sure what he drawing is, I was mainly
trying to get rid of the ink that appears on the brush.
Part 2~
For the first part in makng these brushes I knew I wanted to
divert away from using black on white, I feel I like it more when
I experiment with a dark background. The colour I used for the
first two images is lavender, just to keep it a light neutral
colour. I also couldn't decide whether I liked the shapes better
or if I liked the outline better so I just want to experiment with
both styles and see how that turns out.
This next part I wanted to see how the bursh would look if the
colours were randomized, I made sure that in the coding that the
colours would stay in the range of brighter colours. I hope To
have more control with the colour palette, size of the circles,
and the opcaity of the brush.
For this project I wanted to create a flower-like compostion that
moves around interchangeably, similar to this design to a flower
So far I have this basic outline on how I want it to move and and
how to "flower petal" designs can be placed.
Below, I have the basic shape for the "flower" that I wanted and I
hhave the colour fade from purple to blue. I also added a fill
with an opacity of 15 just so that the flower component doesn't
look too plain. I am hoping to add more small details to add to
the flower shape.
This is my final product. I added some ellipses to follow the flow
of the main flower component.
