Spectrum RGB Colors Arranged by Chance v2

2022
RGB spectrum colors, with light and dark versions, arranged by chance. Inspired by Ellsworth Kelly.

This is the third series in works based on Spectrum Colors Arranged by Chance, after Ellsworth Kelly. The second one used pure full saturated RGB spectrum colors, presented in the way of Kelly (same number of rows and columns of squares). This series takes a middle approach… in that next to the full RGB colors I generated some lighter and darker colors as well.

The number of squares in the Ellsworth Kelly piece works out to 4 x 360 pieces, which makes it possible to exactly look 4 times through all the spectrum colors in the RGB HSB space. So I generated 360 white squares, 360 squares with full saturation and brightness, 360 squares with 50% brightness and 100% saturation (darker colors) and 360 squares with 100% brightness and 50% saturation (lighter colors).

Then presented them in Random order.

Again; I made a 1000 versions, then selected the 10 I liked best:
