Organic Forms #8 - Study

Printed on Hahnemühle’s Cotton Rag paper - December, 2024

I love using lines with a computer in vector graphics.

It’s a way of showing energy and movement.

An algorithm could have been used to automatically create the lines.

By drawing them individually, one has more control, as each one becomes an individual object.

Since each line is a separate entity, I can control the thickness, texture, color, and curvature for each line.

Tackling a project like Organic Forms #8 requires lots of patience.

Designing the lines to echo the form, and putting it together, was similar to a jig-saw puzzle.

I had to modify sections until they all blended together.

Before completing the final version, I created a study that is 36” wide.

The lines are black and more densely packed than the final version.

It’s a fine piece, and I wanted to show it as well.

This was printed with pigment ink on Hahnemühle Cotton Rag paper, made from cotton meeting archival standards.

Pigment ink combined with the Hahnemühle paper will last for over 100 years with UV protection.

Price includes a simple frame and Acrylic for UV protection and reduced glare.
