I pulled my hair out and strained my mac mouse muscles while drawing this Kandinsky “artistic” emulation.

Sometimes the best part of a project is being done; this 3rd Grade level artistic emulation will continue.
2 yellow faces gaze at each other from Twin Towers. Below lie a brick wall, the pavement, a patch of green grass and a large bottomless pit. Above shines the sun, the sea laps over a seashell while Outpost 9 encircles a Crazy 8 layer. Between them are a set of frog legs and another pair drips through the black hole below.
The head of a large black bird rises over the tallest tower. And because no brick was found, bricks were made of wood.
Sharpened smoke spires lay below to impale those that leap. On this day the sun’s rays fail to strike the pavement. The Towers with no base find themselves in a World upside down with the sea above and smoke below.
Simple color use symbolizes each element and transparent yellow sun rays over a red brick wall shade it orange. Blended white to dark triangles provide impressions of smoke while stark blue peaks render waves from the sea.
Rings of lens flare illustrate cameras focused on an unreal and unimagined scene. The scene composed of elements as they were drawn out took on meaning after placement and not before. The abstract composition’s story finds its story composed the way random objects lie mixed with the way random stories form.
Trying to add more depth to the image, Gaussian blur, 3D depth and extrusion tools were used in this version.

Additionally a new USB GE mouse purchased from Target eliminated the annoying hand strain the Mac mouse induced.
And here’s the rasterized jpg version
