This post continues a series we started yesterday on adding representational features from a source image into a very abstract canvas. This post starts with a flat random noise texture field and shows how you can use a modulated interactive warp to pull source features out of a totally random noise canvas.
Studio Artist Paint Action Sequence (PASeq) feature called Contexts. PASeq Contexts can be recorded as individual action steps in a PASeq. Contexts can be used to record source, content, bezier, warp, morph, and filtering keyframes within a PASeq. The screenshot above shows how to access the menus to record all of the various Context types…
Yesterday we showed how to build a float sum area MSG preset that generates a resolution independent color source edge abstraction effect. Today we’ll show how to colorize yesterdays’s flat color edge effect. We’ll also add some symmetry translation warping to the colorized edge abstraction to create the finished effect shown above.
Today’s post will focus on some tricks you can use to generate interesting abstractions using the Block Abstraction image operation as a starting point .
The following imageshows a soft abstraction effect I was recently playing around with. We used the output of this effect in yesterday’s post on tiling as our initial starting canvas. Today’s post will detail how I created this particular soft abstraction effect. It’s created with a combination of the paint synthesizer and some interactive…
