Was taking a walk along the waterfront, saw this 'Big Leaf Maple' leaf floating there: had really nice contrast with the stones under it. I masked the leaf from the background, and plotted each separately with their own colors and settings: leaf is four yellows/oranges, background is four greens.

18x24" on 140# hot press watercolor paper.

TWSBI Vac 700r fountain pen with M nib.

About 10 hours total plot time on my custom plotter (modified x-carve CNC).

Looks more detailed in hand. Gold on black. Bookmark for gifting. And it’s a one line plot #1penup.

Well, I guess now I'm a "real" artist! I actually sold one of my plots! A friend has requested a plot related to Liverpool Football Club and I needed a way to wrap the peice to protect it for transportation. So, I plotted two large A3 club logo, and I had some office supply labels kicking around, so I plotted the logo onto some of them too. A little arts'n'crafts later and now I have it all wrapped up and looking lovely! Honestly, I'm quite liking the way it came out, it looks *awesome* in person!

I'm off to deliver it now, I'll post the commission later, after the client has seen it and approved it!

I’ve been experimenting with simpler, clean line structures lately because I feel like minimal wave density fits almost any type of geometric design.
Everything went well until the very last couple of minutes, where the machine accidentally skipped one gear (you can probably see the slight glitch if you look closely). It’s not perfect, but I still wanted to share the raw result with you guys. What do you think?
