Short Study #1: Algorithmic Drawing

Create a static drawing in Processing using 2D primitive shapes. The concept/theme is up to you.
Projects must include:

• A canvas size of 1080x720
• At least 5 primitives (can be the same shape or different shapes)
• Variation in stroke weight and fill color
• A Title for the drawing

For inspiration, revisit some of the artists we have looked at. For more inspiration, here are some other artists working with simple geometric shapes and rules-based art: Bridget Riley, Piet Mondrian, Ellsworth Kelly, Peter Halley, Frank Stella, Wassily Kandinsky....

Due by the beginning of our next class.
