Fast Food Wall Art Simulation

Nate Nolting250/250

"Fast Food Wall Art Simulation" is created from many hidden circular drawings.

I placed each drawing in a different hidden canvas and read its pixel values to approximate the texture of the circles. Technically that makes this an Image composition, but the images are never shown on the canvas.

I played around with different ways the circles could be overlapped. Differing opacity, blend modes, and pixel skipping were used to create some interesting textures.

In my testing, many of the renders, especially the more earth-tone ones, reminded me of art used in fast food restaurants in the 90s when I was growing up.
