Three continuous lines in cyan, magenta, and yellow, each with slightly different distortion values. This is the first finished plot. It came a bit too dense, so I'm going to make a new one today with more whitespace. #penplotter #genart #opart

Finalising the second layer (magenta) on this piece. This is a first try and I need to make some tweaks still. #penplotter #genart #opart

We started on a huge, exciting project and there's very little time for other things right now (more on that later). But today I finally got around to plotting a few iterations of this sketch. Cold-pressed cotton paper with CMYK ink using fountain pens and pencil. #penplotter #genart #linedrawing

Recently started buying CDs again. I forgot how lovely the whole experience is. In part the audio quality, but best of all are the booklets. Some of them really stand out.

Just finished Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams. Understandable that Zuckerberg wants a ban because it puts him in a terrible light. The things Facebook did, and didn't do, for the sake of the bottom line, just horrifying. #carelesspeople

Building further previous experiments, these are quadtrees built with points derived from generative mountain landscapes. #svg #genart

Inner Circle - Oil on Wood. As we age, our circle shrinks—odd, since we know more. Friends, acquaintances, and family drift away, leaving us seeking like-minded connections. We no longer have the energy for uninteresting things. Colors and contrasts fade, but in return, we find peace #painting #art

CATCH, a childhood memory in #sculpture! I've never been a fan of balls or ball sports. Yet, somehow, whenever I walk where they're being played, a ball always manages to find me. It's not fear that I harbor, but rather a deep dislike for being startled. #softscuplture #art #textileart #queer

Karl Gorath, a #gay survivor of Auschwitz, was arrested in 1938 for his sexuality and endured imprisonment at Neuengamme and Auschwitz before gaining freedom in 1945 His story reminds us to work toward a kinder world and ensure such tragedies never happen again. #screenprint #print #lgbtq #gayrights

One day, as I was rummaging through my studio, I couldn't help but notice the abundance of assorted paper scraps lying around. Inspired by this, I decided to craft ladies from these scraps. Here are just a few of the creations I made. #collage #collageart #reuse #recycle #portrait #paperart

Further experimentation with quadtrees. It's interesting to see the emergence of flow fields when the rectangles get very small. Colours used here are just CMY, but one or two colour components are randomly diluted fifty per cent to get more variation. #genart #generativeart #penplotter #svg

The past few weeks I've been moving services away from US providers to their European counterparts. Now I'm looking into buying only European-made products as well. For anyone moving in the same direction, this is a great resource: www.buy-european-made.eu

Fun with quadtrees. I wanted to implement this for a long time but somehow never came to. These are configured to allow just one point per tile. #genart #svg

This beautiful panoramic card by @jimmy.is just came in, all the way from New Zealand. Loving it! #ptpx #penplotter
