Description With a very busy full-time creative job, my lantern burns a lot of fuel. Lately I've been running on fumes. This project was born from the need to exercise my creativity in simpler terms. I wanted to work with very limited tools: just straight lines and color. While the results may not seem much different from any number of gradient presets, they were achieved through a very deliberate application of individual lines and blurs. The goal was visceral, not specific, and I very much enjoyed experimenting in this style.

I just, on a whim, inverted the color on my
computer, and this was my desktop,
and it looks really cool.

just thought you might want to know.

I've always liked your stuff, and I just came across this!

They're wonderful.
they're so... dynamic.

I don't have an iPhone, but
these make me wish I did.

Why thank you. It was really fun coming up with them actually, a great exercise. And naturally I highly recommend the iPhone But particularly if you have a Mac because it's made to sync up so perfectly with all their apps. Cheers!
