I gave this month's Inkscape challenge a go "Draw a simple object in detail".

I rarely do realistic work - as it feels more like copying than creating - but this was fun for a change.
As usual, I used clip groups [to place all the blurred shading objects inside the 4 main parts], gradients, lots of blurs, taper strokes, and changed a few blend modes to 'Overlay' or 'Multiply' to get nicer [warmer] colour mixes.

Founded today, 1994: Mosaic Communications Corporation. You're probably more familiar with their second name, though: Netscape. My first glimpse of the web in 1995.

I was fascinated by that animated N icon. It got to me the way work by Dali and Magritte did: eerie, surreal, kind of haunting, with the glowing horizon and flying meteors during pageload. (90s internet meant seeing those meteors a *lot*).

Here's to yesterday's UI design, and yesterday's web.

I redrew this old one a little and gave it a more lively color. Now I like it better

THE WHITE DRAGON (1978)
Acrylic on Masonite - 20" X 30"

Although this is the third book in the series, this was my first Pern cover, and I was determined to create the dragons as faithfully to Anne McCaffrey's description as possible. 1/4

Good morning you guys. Here are the first two illustrations in a series about barcodes, which I just needed to get out of my head. I wish you all a lovely couple of easter holidays.

This sentiment is so perfect. And the illustration is great.
