A 3rd piece in latest sequence, a companion to the previous couple of posts.
One of a small number that I managed to finish last year is this remake of a long unfinished vector drawing that never quite felt right.
My vector art is a process of meditative experimentation and play. Intentionally arranging and re-arranging different vector elements until they look and feel balanced and have a sense of symmetria about them. Kind of like sampling and remixing music in a way.
I have hundreds of pieces in various stages of completion and numerous variations of finished ones. Filing and naming conventions are an absolute nightmare for me. As is titling finished work.
I feel like it kind of represents a theme for me this year after what feels like a number of seemingly wasted years.

Hi Gardeners and fine #fedi people. I'm Cam. Happy New Year!
I hope to be able to make the #fediverse my home over the course of 2026 after wandering in the wilderness over the past several years since abandoning the main stream.
I'm an old graffiti writer/artist still raging against the dying of the light but I don't paint as much as I would like to anymore. I still sketch outlines so I may share some of these alongside older pieces from time to time.
As a Graphic Artist I'm an explorer of the ornamental and decorative art. I use traditional and digital tools to produce original and existing graphic elements for use with letterforms, symmetric art and patterns as well as mandalas. I started making this type of art using Adobe Illustrator and Affinity Designer but am currently putting time into learning Krita and Inkscape.
Although I'm self-taught for the most part I did do some time in the formal art/design school environment but learned far more painting walls and trains at night in the 1980's and 90's.
I haven't really been sure about the direction my art is going over the past year or two, so I'll be posting some older finished and unfinished pieces for a while until the road becomes clearer.
This is a vector drawing I finally finished in late summer last year.
🙏

New work, a companion piece to the previous post.
Revised version of previous post...it's sometimes hard to decide when/if something is finished.
