On My Mind, Miscellaneous Graphics
Belated letter art to go with last week’s photo.
Process Notes
Drawn in Inkscape, finished in GIMP. Instead of sorting out how to cut or intersect objects in Inkscape, I patched over the problem areas with pieces of the same color. A functional solution but not an elegant one. Speaking of elegant, the roundness on the upper arm of the R never got right. After much fiddling, I had to declare victory and get on with my life. Curves are hard!
On the up side, the result is at least in the same time zone as what I was aiming for and I don’t hate it. So, progress.
Thank you for reading,

I have really got to learn this stuff.
It’s interesting. I feel that my results would be better if I were more artistic. From a technical point of view, be prepared for moments when you want to fling your computer against the wall.
