I Got Inspired

Every once in a while, I get inspired to create something. Sometimes it’s a music idea and sometimes it’s something more tactile. I was watching Brian Eno’s 77 Million Paintings last night and got a surge of inspiration. One of the combinations of art produced a silhouetted figure with various degrees of splatter art making up the insides. I didn’t get a screenshot of the Eno art but here are 3 small pieces inspired by it.

I’ve always liked working with the shapes of people without going into the details of those people’s appearances. I like leaving out things like facial expressions and emotional body language on purpose so you can focus on the overall common shapes and attributes that go along with those commonalities. I might do more of these but there’s a ‘tactile’ bug approaching me and I thing I’m going to be doing something more hands-on next.
