My current #plotter obsessions are
- drawing on old encyclopedia paper
- digitally cutting people out of fashion and other photos and running them through vpype flow imager
- a combination of both

More images in the replies. And yes, I am somewhat conflicted about destroying old books, but they were being sold by the kilogram and no-one was buying them.

I'm very much enjoying vpype flow imager (https://github.com/serycjon/vpype-flow-imager, they are not on mastodon i think) but because I normally write code to generate plottable drawings, it feels very much like cheating.

The old book pages are cut out, painted with gesso and glued with bookbinder's glue to 90g drawing paper to make them a bit more sturdy. The green plots were using sakura gelly roll pens. The blue plots in the previous toots are simple pelikan ink in technical rotring pens.

This is also a fairly known photograph of people crossing the street holding umbrellas. I should look up who the photographer was.

@jack thank you! I like what you're doing with mesh geometry - just the sort of thing I'd like to repurpose an old monitor for and hang on my wall
