technical drawing or painting

It's interesting how with smaller ellipses, the code creates lines which could be designed to mimic a technical drawing, or a sketch of some sort (with my idea of trying to create something that doesn't look computer generated). 



Whereas larger circles, with less spread in the curves, creates a much more paint like feel. I like how the colours begin to look as though they are seeping together when they cross, in the same way paint would. 


So above are the three that I decided were the most interesting to me, and the direction I want to develop. I particularly like the second from the left, in the way that it has the main structure of thicker forms, and then lots of small ellipse falling off it. It creates something very expressive and dynamic. It also reflects a style similar to impressionist painting, where the paintings are made up of lots of small dots (i'm thinking of Van Gogh paintings).
