Lucky Stars block of the month with Don't call me Betsy. These are the first 3 plus the practice block.
"Architextures" is a series of composite images. Each image is a mashup of multiple photographs. At least one of the sources is of an architectural subject, anything from closeup walls or windows to broad cityscapes. The added images provide texture or pattern. In some, the architectural forms are preserved and obvious. In others, the pictures become pure abstractions. Yet in all of them, the inherent geometry, angles, lines, and repetitions of the architecture are essential to the geometry and esthetics of the final image. Most of the source images used for this series are already posted in this photostream. The links to the original and source images are listed below.
Inspiration for the name “Deco Tileworks” is in the geometry of the images. Decorative motifs suggestive of 1920’s and 1930’s art meld with rectilinear blocks suggestive of tilework in the public spaces and architecture of that era, such as railway and subway stations, movie theaters, and high rise office buildings. The Deco Tileworks sets all share a common foundation image. That base picture derives from views of the Atlanta, Georgia skyline and its tall buildings (source images and explanatory notes are elsewhere in this photostream). Specifically, there were two original source images, Facets #1a and #2a. These were combined to create Facets #2e, which by itself was reworked into the common core for the Deco Tileworks. Image 11a, the first in this set, is the common foundation image for the rest of the Deco series.
Base images used for the Deco Tileworks series are:

The Architextures 11 series of Deco Tileworks uses no other source images or composition elements. Only the Facets #2e image is present. Variations of texture, color, and form come from mathematical merges and blends, and from simple mirrors and rotations.
The Architextures 12 series of Deco Tileworks continues the basic themes and geometries of the Deco Tileworks 11 series, but it introduces bright colors. Whites and yellows were created with no additional source images or composition elements, just various merges and saturations of the common deco tileworks foundation image. Blues and greens were created by overlays with another of the Atlanta Highview images (blue sky facets v2). Oranges and reds were introduced by overlays with an unrelated non-architectural image (sunset trees & red rock cliffs _ arches national park, utah).
Additional images used for the Deco Tileworks 12 series are:

Some facades that influenced me from around the world. The dotted one is from neo-baroque house situated in Sofia, Bulgaria. The Greek one on the back is the Ancient Library of town Ephesus in Turkey. It cannot be unseen the loop of appreciation and touch of beauty, that can be found in both of the buildings. I think that one day in the future, people will reconsider again what they find as beatiful and will start reborning this forgotten schools like rococo and gothic.
