Weird One

This popped out during some gallery show testing. I liked the juxtaposition of fine detail with rough loose paint.

Space Filling Curve Regionization Rendition

This started with a new space filling curve sketch effect. That was then used to build colored regions via the Flat Color Regionize image operation effect in Studio Artist 4. The space filling curve is generated by solving the traveling salesman problem for the curve inflection points.

Canvas Textures Paint Abstraction 2

Another gallery show generated paint abstraction. I'm working with a folder of canvas texturing paint presets, along with a second folder of water wash paint presets. And i have the 'surprise me' auto-masking option turned on as well.

Soft Painterly Abstraction

More experiments with directed evolution of MSG processors in the Studio Artist evolution editor. A macro edit 'add' effect is procedurally softening an underlying vector abstraction effect.

Dendrites

Adding some new MSG processors that generate various vector growth stalk effects. They are being used in a larger composition created via directed swap evolution in the Studio Artist evolution editor.
