Imperfect Lines - Another Abstract Digital Painting

in #art7 years ago

Imperfect Lines


Here's another piece I created on Art Rage.

I called it "Imperfect Lines" and this time it is in portrait orientation.

The Inspiration For This

I was again inspired by warm tones in an abstract composition. This time I was trying to draw straight lines which by way of hand drawing leads to imperfection.

This creates a certain chaotic and organic feel - the imperfection. It is also reminiscent to me of decorative carpet patterns.

I love the way colours blend together in Artrage - it is very similar to actual real paint.

I hope you like it. Also (as I usually say) feel free to use it in your own posts if you can find a use for it.

I might try getting some prints made of these to see how they translate as actual physical works.


How It Was Created


It was created on my Ipad and finished on my Mac using ARTRAGE.

This is an app I particularly like because it simulates the textures and feel of real brushes and other media without being overly complicated.

It is also available on Windows and MacOs and gives you many of the features of Corel Painter for a fraction of the price and doesn't require the monster system which that application necessitates.

BTW if you have any other recommendations for simple painting apps (Iphone or Desktop) that have realistic media please let me know.

@thecyptofiend - A perfect art piece thou hath created from the imperfect lines O Art rage master. It does remind me of hand woven carpets or table mats. You seem to have a thing for orange and earthy brown hues. They give a nice positive character to your creations. Thanks for sharing. Upvoted.

I am continuing my passionate focus on wildlife. Today I wrote a blog on Snoozing parrots with my musings about Thomas Carlyle equating parrots to economists. I request you to take a look at it when you have time. Your comments, as always, would be an encouragement and incentive for me to make better blogs. Thanks

Yes I like those colours. Thanks!

'The word 'IMPERFECT' actually spells 'I'M PERFECT.' Because everyone is perfect in their own imperfect ways.'

Wow! This is cool.

.. Continue to do your thing @thecryptofiend

Beautiful colors for a coffee table.

I was thinking more a carpet but that could work too.

More intense colors, look great

I like the warm tones. Reminded me of a really comfortable den actually. And separately, this would be great to hang in a long white hallway. Sorry, that came out of nowhere lol.

Maybe it's just me, but this looks like the view of spinning around in circles as fast as you can :O

Wow! You donated 1000 STEEM to @cryptopie! I hope that this information reached others! Welcome to @papa-pepper donation club!

Great work! Have you submitted your work to the weekly ArtByte Artist Showcase: https://www.artbyte.me/artbyte-artist-showcase/

No I haven't. I will take a look.

Great work man. It's really nice to see the color tones. It perfectly matches with the overall color mirage . Thanks for sharing @thecryptofiend

You're welcome, glad you liked it!

This is beautiful

for a while when i started painting i became obsessed with painting straight lines, to the point it was all that i did for a while

eventually i found that painting figures or humans was a lot less stressful haha

Yes I think so - unless you are willing to ruin a ruler by getting it covered in paint!

Art is the language of love and humanity.... I love it..... Nice Post by you @thecryptofiend .....

Great words. Thank you!

this is BEAUTIFUL!!!

I have very good feelings with that. How to understand art better? Can you advice any book?

Not really sure a book can help you understand art - it might teach you about art history but not how to understand it - that is up to you.

my first impressions was like wtf is this, now looking closer I like the color mixture and texture. I will use it for my iphone wallpaper. Now I want that app too ;) Thanks for sharing

Thank you!

Great work!

I often stop to admire paintings that I stumble upon and try to think the messages that the creators of those artists wants to convey.
This is a good artwork @thecryptofiend warm colors with ominous looking shades.

Very nice, Will be looking forward to your posts.

Up-voted :-)

great work man...love it.....keep it up😃

Beautiful painting, keep it up ^^

Happy to see your art!:) I wished to make your portrait (currently draw steemians, he-he), but found not a single photo:(

Thank you. You could also look for public domain or creative commons photos to paint from.

hey upvoted and followed ! check my blog about cryptos :) follow for follow ?

Thanks. I don't do follow for follow. It is already hard enough because I'm following so many people!

@thecyptofiend There is something deeply captivating in your painting, I am new in art and cannot explain what exactly, but the dark and red lines create sort of powerful, satisfying dis-balance. I am very interested in getting more knowledge in art and I am glad people like you share their works. Check out my blog for The Starry Night post and whatsmore important keep expressing yourself through your art!

Thank you that is what I was trying to create:)

Beautiful post ! Thank you so much for your effort !!

Upvoted !

Thank you:)

welcome !

You are welcome @thecryptofiend !

perfectly imperfect

i am not understand much the art but up vote

A very beautiful piece of art, i love how the colours all flow together. Thank you for sharing this! :)

Thanks glad you like it:)

nice work... thanks you posting about this technique..

You're welcome!

Nice! Do you use any special drawing hardware or just mouse or touchpad?

I use a wacom tablet and a pen on my Ipad - you can use your finger on Ipad but it is not very precise. Mouse is just too hard.

I've heard good things about the Wacom. I did a recent project with Photoshop that required a lot of fine detail editing and doing it with the mouse was miserable.

Mouse takes too long and it is too hard. Wacom tablets are better but it is still harder than normal drawing. The ideal would be something like an Ipad Pro with Wacom doing the pen technology. I know Wacom produce something similar but I have yet to try one out.

nice work again love it.

Good story.

Maybe @lordvader should take up art as a hobby. Then he wouldn't be so inclined to
