Flowers
Series of flower sketches, illustrate usage of simple shapes (for petals), array and for loop to draw them, rotation, translation and scale.Some with mouse control and gradient color usage. r is a version with randomness for shape and location of petals
a is a version with drawing order animated
g is a version with growth animated
m is a version with mouse control
Flower1 Flower1g
Single set of identical ellipsoid petals around an (optional) center. Size and color of petals and center are given by variables. Petals are drawn in a loop, according to numerical and logical parameters. | noFill(), noStroke(), smooth() ellipse(), translate(), rotate() for(), if() | |
Flower2
Mod of Flower1: Double set of petals around an (optional) center. Given pars generate Golgotavirag (Passiflora). Parameters are in an arrays of length 2, for the parameters of the 2 set of petals. | int[], float[], boolean[] | |
Flower3 Flower3g
Mod of Flower1: Set of identical petals in a bunch, not in full circle. New variable defines starting angle. | arc() | |
Flower3m
Mod of Flower3: On mousePressed flowers are drawn, for c key cleared. Angle is random, size is controlled by mouse y position. | random(), keyPressed(), redraw(), mouseX, mouseY, | |
Flower4
Mod of Flower2: The 2 circles may have rotated with respect to each other, and may be of different petal forms: stroke, ellipse, or special polygons. Petals may have gradient color, which is realised by drawing different sizes of the petal shape on each other, in each case different color. | switch(), function with parameter | |
Flower5 Flower5a
Flower5g
Petals arranged in a spiral. Mod of Flower1: Flower with spirally placed and sized circle petals. The spiral is the Archimedes spiral, the form of which depends on the initial rotAlpha. Petals may have changing color depending on distance from center. | | |
Flower6
Mod of Flower1: Single set of identical petals of smooth, specifically designed shaped and some with texture-like curved lines, and (optional) center. The form of the petal is given by drawPetal1(), drawPetal2(),.... In draw one of the different functions is called. On mousePressed a new shape is used. | curveVertex(), beginShape(), endShape() | |
Flower1r1
Mod of Flower1: Petals size and rotation is not regular: petals are scaled within a range randomly, and rotated by random angle. New flower is drawn on mouse click. | mousePressed(), redraw(), function with parameter | |
Flower1r2
Mod of Flower1: Flower with double petals in circle, size is randomly scaled, inner slightly smaller. New flower is drawn on mouse click. | |
Stem with leaves - no applets from here on, but .pde
Mod21_14_0 Mod21_14_1
Stem with bezier shaped leaves, places with random variation on left and right. Multiple copies next to each other, redrawn on "c" key. | random() bezierVertex() | |
Mod21_14_2
Size and number of leaves changes based on mouse click coordinates. Multiple copies next to each other, redrawn on "c" key. | |
