I was inspired by Frederik Vanhoutte’s generative art. I’m someone who really loves color and lights so I love how his art incorporates in an illusion of “light” through the use of colors. I think I’m drawn to it because it is interesting how light is really just the use of contrasting colors and also certain shades or colors. He also makes the circle look spherical through the use of perspective even though the shape is really 2D on my computer.

I specifically looked at piece 653 from this archive:

I don’t know the algorithm that generated the work. However, I suppose he used many thin arcs to create that spherical effect. He also knew how to color the different lines to give it that effect of light. His artistic knowledge is shown in this through that use of persepecitve and the colors he chooses.

This is what the piece looks like
