"White Caps" and the "Royal Blue Court" from start to finish

"White Caps"
A multi-program and multi-process artwork from the Cabbages series.
It takes a long time to construct these artworks, but that's the fun part. Here's a bit about how go about it.

"White Caps" Original Source

  This is the original source for the entire White caps family, chosen for it's strong diagonal composition and high contrast color scheme. Plus it has a cool row of spots. 

  This image, taken with an iPhone 4,  has evolved  a very large family

"White Caps" long version finished artwork

"White Caps" square version

  You can see I completely rebuilt the entire left side, using manipulated  pieces from other parts of the image, or from other images from the same photo shoot. The upper left backgound leaf is derived from the upper right one. The left lobe of the central group is derived from the Center one. The square version is partly cropped, partly reconfigured from the long version. 

"The Royal Blue Court" and other Whimsies from ​"White Caps" Cabbage artwork.

Here are some of the offspring from "White Caps". I like to work in evolutionary series, with crowd-sourced decisions as to which images gets to procreate.
