yeah, I hear ya. And @apolette (if memory serves) is anchored educationally/professionally in the sciences but also expresses through art. I'm a big fan of people who like to produce at the crossroads of STEM and the ARTS...cool visual/intellectual synergies become increasingly possible (IMHO).

Wow, I'm glad to read that @danielshortell, and thank you @carlgnash for sharing my work :)

It was really interesting to work on this drawing, it was at the same time a kind of technical challenge, and also a real pleasure to do it :)

I first made a sketch with different symmetries (circular around the eye and axial to the diagonal), with main lines, circles, parts etc... just to locate elements

After that I recorded the bottom right part, and then I wrote a script (in c++ and OpenCV) to crop, flip, and assemble it.

I'm glad you like it!

I think I will soon do another "4 hands" drawing ;)

Oh so cool to hear more about that process! Makes sense you used a script for the post-processing, I was honestly blown away by how perfect that part was and thought it must have taken you forever to get that right! Yes please would absolutely love to see another one of those and make sure you let me know when you post it so this time I can upvote it while still in payout!!! Very happy your art opening was a success and I just want to say I am really impressed with your terrifically creative posting :) Much love - Carl
