WEEK 32: Trimee Color

Tangles:

Trimee, Florz

Just as there are a million shading options for Trimee, color presents a new range of opportunities, too. In this example, I used the concept of Trimee to create a shape and colored the black crossover parts. I then created an aura around the outer and inner lines of the larger shape and colored the aura red. I was thrilled with the result. It gave definition to the larger shape but also really emphasized the stark black and white of the Trimee itself.

Tangles:

Trimee, Pokeleaf, Mooka

The second example borrows the idea I floated in the last exercise. Instead of shading random triangles, I colored them to create a background. I’ve used the Mooka tangle as an alternate to a string here; it breaks the tile up the way a string normally might. Don’t forget to use strings where and when you want to.

Create some Trimee tangles here and then add color. Whether you color it entirely or choose to highlight some parts over others, the choices are endless, and you can have a lot of fun with it.
