@prehensile nature is just cranking the bevel & emboss layer style to 100%

@prehensile This is such a clever idea!

@heurism oh these are amazing! I wasn't expecting this to be in california
@prehensile Basques settled in Nevada, Colorado, and Cali. Most were sheep herders. Nevada and Bakersfield, CA have a great deal of Basque folks and amazing Basque bunk house food.
@prehensile there is a little group of Aspen trees around my favorite Tahoe adjacent lake. The carvings are still there. Mostly vaginas or open legged women.
@prehensile I love all of their projects.
@prehensile Poor tree, but what an interesting idea! Obviously the result is strongly dependent on the original font.

@prehensile A font 'designed by a tree', wow. I'm way behind here and not an artistic designer, but the early deformations remind me of the supposedly dyslexia-friendly font 'Dyslexie', but less literally organic. Thanks for sharing!

@prehensile Amazing! I think it’s also a nice touch that the different weights are named according to the years.
@prehensile
Amazing.
Reminds of that time in the nineties that sometime did some actual Postscript programming (it's a Lisp dialect, IIRC!) to create a randomized typeface that was different each time it was printed/displayed.
@prehensile @aadil could this be considered a solarpunk font? I love the idea
@prehensile everywhere at the end of time but it's plant-based
