Fun Facts About Psychedelic Art
The term "psychedelic" was coined in 1956 by psychiatrist Humphry Osmond and comes from the Greek words "psyche" (mind) and "delos" (manifesting), literally meaning "mind-manifesting."
Psychedelic art as we know it today emerged in the 1960s counterculture movement, but cultures around the world have been creating visionary art inspired by altered states of consciousness for thousands of years.
Many psychedelic patterns are based on fractals—geometric patterns that repeat at different scales. These patterns are also found throughout nature, from snowflakes to the branching of trees.
Studies have shown that viewing psychedelic art can actually alter brain activity in ways similar to meditation, potentially offering stress-reduction benefits even without the use of substances.
The connection between aliens and psychedelic imagery became popular in the 1960s, but many ancient cultures also depicted otherworldly beings in their art, sometimes associated with visionary experiences.
Psychedelic Coloring Tips
- Experiment with complementary colors (opposite on the color wheel) to create vibrating effects that enhance the psychedelic feel of the designs.
- Try color gradients that shift from one hue to another across a pattern to create a sense of movement and dimension.
- Use fluorescent or neon colors for truly eye-popping results that capture the essence of trippy art.
- Don't be afraid to break conventional color rules—psychedelic art thrives on unexpected color combinations!
- Consider using metallic gel pens or markers for certain elements to add an otherworldly shimmer to your finished pieces.
