Concept:
When I saw animation and art I thought of how a point from a pen-ball or a dot from the tip of a brush can be manipulated to create beautiful artworks so I decided to recreate this.
Highlight:
Deciding on the artwork was challenging until I thought of my name. I don’t know where I would end with this brush tip but I would love for my first work of art to be my name. I decided to create a kind of intro to my first assignment using this idea.
Every artwork is made of lines and curves so I had to discover how to use my brush tip to create these. The line creation was very simple but the curves was a challenge. Initially I was thinking of just drawing curves as a whole using the arc function but then that would mean I am going against my words to use the brush tip idea.
After watching some videos (https://youtu.be/uRd5iKBpsUA?si=4025fr-zmeL18zha) I was able to find a way to make this possible. This part of the art is what took most of my time. After getting these, I started to draw.
if(r4==true){
a=220+sin(angle3)*55;
b=290+cos(angle3)*80;
circle(a,b,10);
angle3+=speed;
if(a<225){
r4=false;
}
The most challenging part of my work was joining a line and curve as I had to calculate the angle but this made me appreciate my work the more because, a slight change in the angle ruins the whole piece.
Art:
At the end of the intro I just decided to add my portrait but spice it up a bit by adding some form of simple animation.
Reflection and Ideas for Future Work:
After completing my first artwork, I plan to draw something else using my brush tip . I hope to find better was of drawing curves such that slight change in angle will not affect my work and maybe add the element of randomness to see the unique arts that will be created by the computer.
