August '26 Print Set

I like plotting with the 'Xtra Bold' Bic Cristal pens. Once you pass a certain density of lines and saturation of ink, the paper and ink start to interact in such great unpredictable ways.

The pet plot challenge by @bantamtools was the perfect opportunity to take new CMY (WIP) version of [RSTR](rstr.d17e.dev) for a spin.

I’ve been trying to find a good way of making thicker pen plotter lines for years and finally cracked a way with some new code. This is originally a drawing I made, converted to vector and then an attractor laid on top to thicken lines within an influence field #plotterart #bantamtools

I also went for a SFW option for #inktober. I took weave to woven to braid to braided… and did a portrait.

Working through my Zodiac series.
Taurus. Ruled by Venus. Loyal, stubborn, admirers of beauty. Also, my sign.

If you are in Marfa these next few days be sure to look for the @bantamtools.bsky.social plotter vending machine

Very happy to have contributed "Marfa Party", a special edition of my "Scribble Party" algorithm, available as physical plots, alongside works by many artists!

BantamTools has really upped the ante on Plottefiles.com. The Unsourced section makes for a good location to display plots. plotterfiles.com/results/2ed8...

The hatch fill is one of the simplest algorithmic fill techniques for plotters. In fact, a good one is included with the AxiDraw and NextDraw (@bantamtools) installation. You can also create more customized hatches with some tweaks in Inkscape. #algorithmicfill #penplotter #sharing

Work in progress. It’s detailed enough to be worth plotting on the @bantamtools ArtFrame. #wip #penplotter #truchettiles #plotterart
