Proposal: Part One
 
Design Statement
 
            In our image we will be exploring many aspects of design. We will distort the traditional usage of colors by reversing the roles of warm colors and cool colors. Normally, warm colors present themselves in the foreground and cool colors recede into the background. Our image series, however, will reverse this fundamental aspect of design to challenge the viewer’s expectations. This also plays with positive and negative space, making them harder to discern. We will utilize different unpredictably placed lines and a singular circle in unpredictably selected colors. The varying sizes of the circle and the variance in brush size and  will create an irregular texture that toy with the viewer’s perception of space and proportion.
            The foreground will consist of lines​ in an unpredictable color that give the image a sense of motion. Using a mix of predetermined brushes and brush sizes we will create different textures of the lines in the foreground. The foreground will be composed of smaller or larger lines to further challenge the viewer by skewing their perspective of the texture. The lines produced will be sine graph lines.
            The background will be made of an unpredictably selected color along with a singular circle that will both depend on the "n" variable given.
            We decided to use these elements in particular because we wish to present a piece of art that is difficult to decipher and requires greater inspection to fully digest the image. The colors go against what the eye wishes to see (sometimes warm colors stacked on cool colors, or even unpleasant color combinations as we have viewed). As well, the contrast between the circle and the background and the lines in the foreground test the traditional notion that large objects occupy the foreground and smaller objects recede.
 
Technique Statement
 
            We will produce color variation by allowing n to be any color and limiting it's range to the irgb 255 range. For the background, by incorporating the variable “n” into the procedure, we will produce a wide range of different colors. This will ensure that we have a wide range of different colors to create many varying images.
            The foreground will be produced with unpredictable sine lines. We will use the variable “n” to determine which n pattern to produce, how many to produce of it, and the placement of the line. We will also use different brushes to create various textures and illusions of motion. To limit which brushes are used, we will create a list of brushes and use “n” to select which brush so that it is unpredictable. We plan on using at least 10 different brushes, so this will produce quite a large amount of possibilities for what turtle graphics are produced. We will also limit the size of the brushes and have them be somewhat unpredictable by using “n.” These techniques as a whole will create at least 1000 distinct images based on the given variable “n.” Due to the huge range of color combinations that are possible, 1000 images are These 1000 images are guaranteed by utilizing “n” for a parameter in color, brush, brush size, circle size and scale, locations of the circle, and the line patterns and locations.​
