    A Pop Art influenced design for a print.
    I’ve been creating geometrical designs for many years, partly because I was a teenager in the late 1960s when Pop Art and Op Art were very popular.
    This particular design was created quite shortly after I’d visited an exhibition by Brian Rice, so I’m sure that there are a few Brian Rice inspired influences in there.
    The use of digital technology has revolutionised the creation of geometrical art and op art, not only because it is now so much easier to create perfect geometrical shapes, straight lines and flat colours, but it’s also much easier to modify and alter designs. In the design here for instance any of the elements in the composition can be changed almost instantaneously, from the thickness of the yellow line to the colours that are used. Imagine doing that with paint.
