I had such a great time demoing Big Wet Pixels live on stage at THU! Here are some photos and screenshots from the event.

I was stunned to see these paintings by the late Chuck Close that look almost like watercolor.

When I started working on my “Big Wet Pixels” homage, I had no idea the artist himself had been painting this way!

I'm midway through a (major, long overdue) overhaul of the fluid transport layer of my watercolor simulation. Made some good progress over the weekend. But more importantly: I made lots of new bugs. Glorious, unrepentant, face-eating bugs. I almost don't have the heart to squash them.
