My work, "cloudScapes," is inspired by Georgia O'Keeffe's painting "Sky Above Clouds IV." I first saw this painting when I was in art school in my 20s, and it has remained an inspiration to me ever since.
A year ago, I developed an algorithm for generating clouds. I was experimenting with this algorithm when I had the idea to create a new version of "Sky Above Clouds IV" that replaced O'Keeffe's clouds with my own algorithmic creations.
I have tried to be true to O'Keeffe's proportions and colors in my work. However, each iteration of "cloudScapes" produces a new cloudscape, as the algorithm makes random changes to the number of clouds, their frequency, density, and position.
I hope that I have created a fitting derivative version of O'Keeffe's work with all due respect to the original artist.
