Depending on the symbols, I would consider them minimalist yes!MeiTow wrote:Hrm...would symbols from a game be considered minimalist?

Remember - "any design or style in which the simplest and fewest elements are used to create the maximum effect"

Re: MARCH Challenge - Minimalism!
Yeah, the game I'm thinking of is a one side vs. the other side kind of game and I was thinking of using the symbols for the two sides in some way.blackmageheart wrote: Remember - "any design or style in which the simplest and fewest elements are used to create the maximum effect"

Nope. It's a brand new game, actually, and I think I've gotten the idea worked out.Miss Clawful wrote: It wouldn't be Archon, would it?

Re: MARCH Challenge - Minimalism!
Okay. Good. I didn't think so, but had to be sure, otherwise I'd pick something else.
Anyway, pretty sure this qualifies but to be sure, here's what I'm thinking of stitching for this challenge:

As with much of my other works, it'd be on black aida, only be stitching the white and grey areas, I'm thinking it'd be an interesting effect.
I had some others in mind but think this one would be best, if its considered minimalism art. If not, then perhaps this one:

Only I didn't want to do another that is portrait like, even though I may do this one eventually someday.
Or this one:

But also have some ideas for minimalizing ones that aren't, but will have to see if I have the time for such a task.

Re: MARCH Challenge - Minimalism!
Ok so now, with BMH's guidance, I have my pattern and now I just have to see if I have the right colours and get my behind into gear! Woot woot!
I don't know if I should reveal my plan now or wait til it's done... what do you guys think?? Lol

Re: MARCH Challenge - Minimalism!
Keep it a surprise, those (if good) are always fun to reveal at last moment.
I still have time to figure mine out, what I'll do, still have another project I need to finish up first.

Re: MARCH Challenge - Minimalism!
I can't wait. I don't know if anyone will know my pattern but I took existing stuff and altered it for a minimal look.
Anyone know what that is supposed to represent? Is it obscurely recognizable enough? ^_^ (Is it minimalist enough?)
Oh and can we do multiple entries? I have a couple that I'd love to do.
