algorithmic abstract landscape

atmospheric abstract landscape with manually programmed color gradients and occasional mosaic overlays

In this algorithm I expanded upon the basic abstract landscape concept of my horizon series. The code draws lines every few pixels down the y-axis as it gradually and randomly shifts the color in the neighborhood of a base color.  Often, but randomly, of course, the color is swapped at and below the randomly determined horizon. It then over-draws this abstract landscape several times and blends the colors with each iteration. I often like to merge two algorithms, and with this abstract landscape I often include the seascape and mosaic algorithms as overlays and/or background layers. My abstract seascape series uses similar techniques with a slightly more sinuous algorithm for an abstract landscape
