Great work. Really like semi-randomised pieces of art like these. I did something similar a couple of years ago for a background App for Android, while exploring Kotlin, but more based on pre-defined "patterns" instead of shapes. Feel free to take a look ;) Github: https://github.com/ODDBureau/mosayq Android App: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oddbureau....

Having a work iPhone, this is what i most miss from Android: you can compile cute projects like these even if they aren't on the store.

I went back to Android from iPhone for a lot of reasons. This was one of them. :)

Randomness can lead to unexpectedly-identifiable outputs: the "Chubby Yettie" generated graphic[0] has what almost looks like a swastika in the upper-left corner. Might want to be careful about checking resulting aggregated outputs from this code. [0] https://imgur.com/a/502xTOU

Swastika, a millinea old symbol of well being?
