Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays!

As I did for 2023, 2022 and 2021, I used my Axidraw to create my holiday cards. This year, I also added some water colors to the designs, partly because the idea of combining pen plotting with water colors has been on my mind for a while, and partly because I thought these cards needed some color to be complete.

Here are some action shots of the Axidraw doing its thing:

I love using my Axidraw pen plotter.

Like previous years, this design was created with py5. Over the past few years I have continued to develop a new renderer for py5 that is specifically designed for creating SVGs and SVGs for the axidraw. Building this has been a ton of work but so enjoyable. Someday it will be ready to share with others.
