New artwork: Why Weepest Thou? V. I originally wanted to paint all these rectangle pieces in Procreate, but yesterday’s painting made my back flare up, so we’re back to vector style.

New artwork: First Vision XVII. This is a bit more abstract than most of what I’ve done before, but I like it and I’m planning to do more in this style. (And yes, inspired by Rothko.)

New artwork: I Am a Child of God V. A reference to the Primary song. The rectangles represent (bottom to top), a child, its mortal parents, and our Heavenly Parents. (Figured it was time to do a more abstract version of this idea. It ended up also alluding to Hearts of the Children IV and Hearts of the Children V.)

My process for this style, for what it’s worth: mock up the design in Figma, export an SVG, open it in Inkscape, use the roughen and simplify filters, export a PNG, open it in Procreate, select the rectangles, paint the streaks within the rectangles, export a PNG, texture in Affinity Photo as usual.

New artwork: Deliverance to the Captives. (If I’d known that all I needed to do to get through that art block was to blog about it, I would have written yesterday’s post weeks ago!)

New artwork: Strait Is the Gate. A new take on Narrow Is the Way. Also, Inkscape’s roughen and simplify filters are nicer to work with than SVG filters (which often have some weird rendering issues in the bottom right of shapes, at least when using Inkscape to render them).
