It's been a few years since I messed around with images and 3D and stuff like that. I was actively trying things out during COVID so at least 4 years ago.
I like the halftone type of effect you can see in the image above. It's more of a dithered image but I wanted something that closely represents silk woven pictures. There is a whole history of this type of art and especially so in Coventry which is where I'm from. Three minutes walk from where I once lived is the site of a weaver's where Stevengraphs were originally made. The French couldn't close the business in the nineteenth century but the Germans eventually did in the 1940's.
There is still a lot of Stevengraphs to admire and own in circulation. Owning one is high on my list of things to do.
I'm sure it'll happen soon.
