I love experimenting with pen/ink/paper, and have added another layer as part of the hobby. I’m exploring computational art, inspired by the ink drawings I do during ink reviews. Another fun offshoot of the hobby… and all that starting with a few drops of dye-coloured water on paper.
Starting from the original “The Doors of Eden” drawing, I first converted it to a black-and-white picture with exaggerated contrast. I then applied an “old photo” filter, and added a sepia-toned gradient to the result. Finally, I used a “pixel sort” filter to blur the boundaries between the different worlds.
