CMYK Color Wheel constructed from just three pens and hatch shading.

CMYK ink on 11"x15” watercolor paper using a vintage HP DraftPro DXL pen plotter generated and controlled with Python.

Available in my shop: shop.paulrickards.com/wildcard

(fixed size)

An abstract pen plot on while paper of 7 concentric rings outlined in black of rainbow shades of color with the inner rings being darker than the outer rings. The color is created with hatch strokes of just three pens of cyan, yellow, and magenta and are slightly offset from each ring to create a subtle swirling pattern.

@artcollisions This is a design and lifestyle flaw.

My teenager's bed broke over Christmas. We've got it splinted and supported by books but it needs to be replaced. I'm thinking about what kind of bed we should get and how they use it and I think I just designed a Discord Gaming bed.

This Is Our Jam…

After weeks of overcast skies, my mild case of SAD has settled in for the next month or so. It makes me laugh because anything beyond hanging out under the covers listening to Radiohead and Nina Simone while obsessively playing solitaire is an impertinent inconvenience. Fortunately, I'm still able to overcome the inertia and get to where I need to go on time. But my brain is just...

It's inspiring to work in a community where my fellow artists & local institutions (s/o @JAMdrops) are open to a fresh take. Like words made into film or sculpture.

Like movie shorts you'd see before a feature. At an IMAX.

@sandofsky I downloaded the Costco app. It is only good for pushing ads. The search bar disappears IN THE GROCERY SECTION

Bag is done. I'm so much happier with the fusible fleece than the foam that is specifically made for bags.

#sewing #handmade #totebag

tote bag with red straps, an interior red pocket and an exterior pocket made of Australian Aboriginal fabric with a kingfisher design on it. The bag is made from strips of alternating green and a yellow/orange batik. The green strips have a decorative stitch at the bottom. On the top one you can see hedgehogs.

No photo because with the mirror it is all noise and no signal at this stage. Later, I am helping Joseph Hladik install his fiber art show at the art center. He made all new work.

I’m working on a curved surface so the coastline of Antarctica is taking a while. I can place only about five tiles every half hour. I feel like Slartibartfast again.

Making tesserae for Antarctic Ice

A pile of rocky colored glass tiles less than 3 cans square is seen on a glass grinder. The convex mirror they will go on is in the background

Oh, good for him. Lovely work. Maybe someday I'll see one up close. Lead is the devil.

First glance tells me he uses the hinged oriental screen technique on a lot of pieces.

TAN had blurbs on some of the British Honourees. One of the people is Brian Clarke. He sounds interesting. He's developed a non lead free-standing stained glass technique. I wonder if he hates grout too. I need to check this guy out.

"Since the 1970s, Oldham-born Clarke has subverted the notion of stained glass as a religious art through various innovations, including the fabrication of freestanding stained glass panels devoid of lead."
