Challenge entries (so far)

C for Color.

This is meant as a poster showing how musical harmony (chord changes) can be added on top of sheet music. There's a glyph for each chord change in the song, and each 'chord symbol' uses rounded squares or pointy triangles along with one of twelve different basic colors to show what chord it is and what function it serves musically.

Brutal Feedback welcome 😂 

This is my entry , I have lost the original file but got this from my instagram. I was experimenting with blending modes and came up with this.

ENTROPY (2versions)
Coloured shapes in different blend modes
For the lettering: Sketch LPE
X-Rayed

I just finished this piece. I have progress pics for the WIP thread when it gets okayed.

I've played in Inkscape a little bit before, but this was my first larger piece. I am proficient in Figma and Affinity Designer. Created this in 2 hours.

Welcoming brutal feedback!

This is my entry. Not sure where I was going with it, but it was fun.

It seems like my first entry had something wrong with colors, so here is the same entry again.

@AmberLyraStudio I can't see your piece

@AmberLyraStudio, welcome.

Please try again to attach your submission. drag/drop into the textarea or use the paperclip button. 

I forgot to add it the night I finished it. Is it visible, now?
Thanks for the heads up!
Love seeing everyone else's work :)

I tried to reproduce the color gradients from the morning sky, which I managed to capture a few months ago.

@razr that is really beautiful
