I was looking at the images in This Post , where two long images in different styles were combined to make an “offspring” image…
Cross-breeding Art Styles
…and the notion came to mind to take the Offspring image and one of its Parents, and combine them in compositional context, to see what kind of image would be thereby produced. (I did add other elements into the composition to complete it, but the two aforementioned images are the main “ingredients” in the mix 🙂 )
Scroll down along the following long image and let your mind take a colorful little “waltzing cakewalk” through the composition that was “baked up” in context. Can you see how the parts have been harmonized to be able to flow together? (Yes, in a way, it’s like a kind of a visual music score…)
Waltzing Cakewalk - Cross Breeding Art Styles in Context
NOTES: Some artists (such as Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinsky) have explored the interrelationship of visual art and music through their works. If you are into art, you might have noticed the influence of artist Piet Mondrian in some of the elements of the scrolling image composition in this post. Some of Mondrian’s work was greatly influenced by his interest in jazz music, and one of his most famous paintings, “Broadway Boogie-Woogie”, seems to show the complex rhythms and patterns of jazz.
It’s always fun to try to express one kind of art form (such as music) through another kind of art form (such as visual art)…
