Colorforms 2


Back to my favorite insta-art, "Colorforms." The formula today is four of each shape except one white star. Four of each color, square black background. Surprisingly, this took more than five minutes to do. I wanted each color and shape to be where I wanted it to be. Each color had its own Photoshop layer, which is difficult to manage. Back in the 1980s ancient of days, when the crickets were chirping in the sultry nights of Cambridge, Massachusetts, I cut up painted paper ("Color-aid") and stuck it with glue on the black background. I had no idea I'd be doing that with digital media.
