oipigface Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I think you might find ellipses in quite startling colour combinations in some of Bridget Riley's more recent work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wookman Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Ms Riley's work will certainly contrast with Mr Muller's. Not covinced that Mr Muller's work would benefit though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil.Taylor Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 Ow - my eyes, my eyes http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=%22Bridget+Riley%22&hl=en&tbo=d&rlz=1R2ADFA_enGB467&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=3g_sUMP2Auua0QWV_oHACg&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAA&biw=1366&bih=593 yep - she's got ellipses - take your seasick pills before looking at this one though http://www.tate.org.uk/art/images/work/P/P07/P07113_10.jpg quite promising actually - I had got as far as thinking of a tilting ellipse sequence - but not both ways at once!

Phil.Taylor Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 Thanks John ! Certainly more interesting that the classic type tip flashes http://www.barcs.co.uk/forums/uploads/monthly_01_2013/post-1785-0-56735800-1357657491.jpghttp://www.barcs.co.uk/forums/uploads/monthly_01_2013/post-1785-0-60323900-1357659362.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodstock Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Everything looks much better superimposed on the airframe. I suspect your black background for the initial work is making things look a bit harsh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil.Taylor Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 Everything looks much better superimposed on the airframe. I suspect your black background for the initial work is making things look a bit harsh. Good observation - medium grey would probably work better I'm just using Powerpoint - and that background is actually a mask so designs which run "off the edge" can be done easily - they just go behind the mask (if you keep bringing it to the front) Phil. edit - like this (wierd ! - fold-up shades & oysters?)
