I’ve been quietly working on my tribute piece to my mom’s cat, Spock, which I’m hoping to have ready as a Christmas gift. While I want to share my progress, I’ve been keeping most of it under wraps to ensure I have the larger elements completed before revealing it. I don’t want to completely spoil the surprise!
In addition to that, I’ve been pursuing another goal on the side: revisiting some of my older works and exploring ways to convert them into digital formats for reproduction.
One of the challenges I’ve faced is preserving the unique qualities of pieces that use metallic and neon inks. I’ve tried both scanning and photographing them, but neither method fully captures the vibrancy and detail of the originals.
After some trial and error, I’ve decided to primarily rely on scanning, followed by extensive editing. This process allows me to correct the colors and, in some cases, completely reimagine the piece in terms of size, color, and structure. It’s a bit of a learning curve, but I’m enjoying the opportunity to experiment and refine these works in a new medium.
Here’s a recent attempt at reworking one of my older pieces—let me know what you think!
Title: Eye of the Storm
