This is the place where we tinker. What lives here is free of theme or architecture but the one common strand is that these projects all grant us delight.

Dot Matrix Gradient Study

Speckled Summits

Patchwork Saguaros

Stipple Sunsets

Dot Matrix Gradient Study takes my approach of splitting the canvas into "patches", which each have their own stipple sizing, density, and layering, and distorts this process to create outputs which blur the lines of recognizable stippling. This piece is an exploration of creating abstract forms with stippling rather than depicting figurative ones. All pieces in this series are composed purely with dots. Some more than others. 50% of sales proceeds from Dot Matrix Gradient Study were donated on-chain at the time of mint to GiveDirectly, where the funds will be directed to helping those in poverty. 

Dreamy landscapes inspired by the Rockies. 50% of the minting proceeds for Speckled Summits will be donated to GiveWell's Maximum Impact Fund (https://www.givewell.org/maximum-impact-fund). Additionally, during the Dutch auction component of the release, any net proceeds above the 0.24Ξ ending mint price will be donated as part of this donation to GiveWell.

Quilted landscapes in homage to the desert. 51% of the minting sales proceeds from Patchwork Saguaros will be donated to the Nancy Rockland-Miller Scholarship fund, held by The Kent State University Foundation.

Beachy dreamscape vibes. 50% of the minting sales proceeds for Stipple Sunsets were directly sent to GiveDirectly, a non-profit that sends money directly to the worlds poorest and most in need–50% of subsequent artist royalties will be be donated to charities in the Rocky Mountain region.
