Nave Residency, Day 2

More fun at the Nave today. I used the heavy rain to soak some paper and play with ink patterns:

I did more random pixel grids with the six-level grayscale dice. Here’s a sampling of three of them:

While I was playing with the random grayscale grids, I decided to pull out an eight-sided die and construct random pixel shapes. Here are three grayscale constructions:

And a multilevel version done with unpainted blocks:

Finally, I laid out pixel-based constructions of the Mississippi, Yangtze and Nile Rivers, which I intend to glue together into three-dimensional versions that reveal the elevation changes along those rivers. At present, though, these are the flat bases:

So a pretty good day, I’d say.
